Grilled Balsamic Garlic Pork Tenderloin

I love pork tenderloin on the grill. It is always tasty and tender. Add in garlic and some good balsamic and you have something special.

Inspired by a Food.com recipe and converted to grill from oven.

A nice tenderloin. More special if you’re really into balsamic.

Notes: For years I did not liked balsamic. It turns out to be a quality thing. I always have the local market versions. Not good… not good at all. Now I get nicely aged balsamic at a local store, Grand Haven Vinegar and Oil, with a variety of olive oils and balsamic. Look around, you have a similar store near you.

Start with a nice porkie.

Trim the pork tenderloin of trim-able fat and the silver skin.

To a 1 gallon zip lock bag add 1 T olive oil, 1 T of a good balsamic vinegar, 2 cloves garlic – crushed, 1 t kosher salt and 1/4 t pepper. Add the tenderloin and refrigerate for 1 hour or more. Overnight is OK.

Preheat grill to medium to medium high (surface temperature of 400 to 450). Move tenderloin from the bag to a well cleaned and oiled grill. Do not rinse.

I generally think of a pork tenderloin as three sided. Grill about 4-5 minutes per side then continue to rotate every 3-4 minutes until internal temperature of 150. About 25 minutes total grill time but may vary some due to exact grill temperature and size of tenderloin.  Let rest for 10 minutes before cutting.

Savory Pork Tenderloin

Pork tenderloin is always a great meal.  Seasoned with a savory spice rub, sautéed in olive oil with garlic and finally finished in the oven.  All in this weeknight 30 minute recipe.

I’m always looking for a good pork tenderloin recipe. I have a lot but more is always better. Based on Pork Tenderloin with Seasoned Rub a 5 star recipe from Food network by Elli Krieger.

A low 4 is probably more like it but as I said before, I have lots of pork tenderloin recipes and it is middle of the pack. If the spice list is to your taste, give it a try.

Notes. I consider a pork tenderloin as a three-sided meat so the searing is about 2 minutes per side times three. Any oven safe pan should work but cast iron is always preferred.

Preheat oven to 425 convection or 450 conventional.

Trim one whole pork tenderloin of the silverskin and trimmable fat. Mix rub.1 teaspoon each of garlic powder, oregano, cumin, coriander, thyme and course salt. Rub the spice mixture into the surface of the tenderloin.

Heat 2 teaspoons olive oil over medium high heat. Add 2 cloves of minced or crushed garlic and cook for 1 minute.

Add the pork tenderloin and sear each side for about 2 minutes until browning some.

Transfer the pan to the oven and cook until about 150 depending on your taste. About 18 -20 minutes in my oven. Allow to rest for 5 minutes before cutting.

Ingredients

  • 1 pork tenderloin
  • 2 teaspoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed or minced
  • Rub

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon coriander
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • 1 teaspoon course salt
