Another great grilled pork tenderloin option. Moist pork tenderloin with a honey glaze. Get company taste for weeknight work.
I love grilled pork tenderloin, and I have lots of variations. It’s a great “cooking for two” meal and always a step up from a pork chop. I started with a nice honey garlic glaze coating and carefully grilled to get this great variation.

A nice strong four heading to a five. My wife, who was not hungry, had two servings.
Notes.
I always think of a pork tenderloin as having three sides since they are almost triangular in shape. So six flips works great here. However, pork tenderloins vary greatly in size and must take that into account here. It took me 30 minutes with a medium size tenderloin on a grill running about 475. Your time will vary so cook to final temperature NOT BY TIME ALONE.

Preheat grill to medium high. You want a surface temperature of 450-500 degrees. Clean and oil well.
Mix 2 tablespoons of honey, one tablespoon soy sauce, and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder.
Trim pork tenderloin of any silverskin and membrane.
Brush the honey mixture on the tenderloin.
Place over direct heat on the grill. Grill for five minutes, rotate one-third then brush the grilled side with more honey mixture. Repeat this twice more. Then continue to grill and flip every 5 minutes until internal temperature of 145 to 150. A total cooking time of 30 minutes for me.
Allow to rest for 5 minutes before cutting.
