Ingredients

  • 1 pork tenderloin
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons whole grain mustard
  • 2 tablespoons dry sherry
  • 3 teaspoons chopped fresh herbs such as rosemary, thyme and chives or 11/2 teaspoons dried
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • In a dish large enough to fit the pork, combine all the marinade ingredients.
    3 tablespoons brown sugar, 2 tablespoons whole grain mustard, 2 tablespoons dry sherry, 3 teaspoons chopped fresh herbs such as rosemary, thyme and chives or 11/2 teaspoons dried, 1 teaspoon salt
  • Prepare the tenderloin by removing the silver skin (detailed instructions in above post). Place in the dish with the marinade turning to coat. Spoon some of the marinade over top of the pork. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to overnight.
  • Pre-heat your grill and lightly oil. Remove the pork from the marinade and place on the hot grill. Reserve the marinade in a small sauce pan if using as a sauce later. Cook the pork for 7-10 minutes per side or until internal temperature reaches 135°F.
  • Remove from grill and tent with foil for 10 minutes.
  • Prepare the sauce by bringing the marinade to a boil. Let simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
  • Slice pork into 1-2 cm thick slices and serve.
