Honey Mustard Marinated Pork Tenderloin

Ingredients

• Pork tenderloin (1.5 pounds)
• Balsamic vinegar (1/4 cup)
• Soy sauce (2 tablespoons)
• Worcestershire sauce (1 tablespoon)
• Honey (1/4 cup)
• Olive oil (2 tablespoons)
• Dijon mustard (2 tablespoons)
• Lemon juice (1 tablespoon)
• Garlic powder (1 teaspoon)
• Onion powder (1 teaspoon)
• Fresh rosemary (2 tablespoons, chopped)

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, honey, olive oil, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, and chopped rosemary until well combined to form a flavorful marinade.
2. Add the pork tenderloin to the marinade, ensuring all sides are fully coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or, for optimal flavor, overnight to allow the ingredients to meld beautifully.
3. Preheat your grill to medium heat, ensuring it is properly cleaned and oiled to prevent sticking.
4. Remove the pork from the marinade, letting any excess drip off. Reserve the remaining marinade for basting during grilling.
5. Lightly sprinkle the pork with additional garlic powder for an extra burst of flavor before placing it on the grill.
6. Grill the pork tenderloin, turning occasionally and basting with the reserved marinade to keep it moist, for approximately 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
7. Once grilled, allow the pork to rest for at least 3 minutes before slicing it into medallions for serving, which helps to retain its juices.
