Barbequed Pork Tenderloins with Soy Orange Glaze

We really enjoy Pork Tenderloins. I try to find new and interesting ways to prepare them - so that we don't get bored with them. I think I created a tasty marinade in this recipe which is then used as a glaze for the finished pork. Hope you like it too!

For Marinade:

¼ cup olive oil
¼ cup orange juice
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 crushed garlic cloves
2 Tbls lemon juice
3 Tbls soy sauce

1 pkg Pork Tenderloins (usually yields two pieces of pork)

Directions:

Combine all of the marinade ingredients in a bowl or blender. Mix well. Put Pork Tenderloins in a zip lock bag. Pour marinade over the tenderloins. Place in refrigerator; marinade 3 hours – overnight.

Preheat BBQ/grill. Remove tenderloins from marinade; shake excess marinade into bag. Pour marinade into saucepan. Cook tenderloins on BBQ 6 minutes – turn to other side and cook for additional 6 minutes. Test meat for doneness. (Note: You may be able to tell from the picture that my tenderloins were a little pink. We only cooked them 5 minutes on each side. So, for the instructions I increased the cooking time to 6 minutes. I ended up having to place some of the slices in the microwave to cook them further.)

While tenderloins are grilling, bring marinade to a boil in saucepan. Reduce by half.

Slice tenderloins; drizzle glaze over top.
