How To Make teriyaki pork tenderloin

  • Step 1
    Combine the soy sauce, pineapple juice, brown sugar, mirin, sesame oil, ginger, and garlic in a small bowl and whisk to combine.
  • Step 2
    Pour the mixture into a 1-gallon resealable bag. Add the pork tenderloin and seal, pushing as much air out as possible. Place in a shallow pan and refrigerate, turning occasionally, for a minimum of two hours or overnight.
  • Step 3
    Pull the tenderloin from the refrigerator at least 30 minutes to an hour before cooking and let it warm on the counter. Preheat grill to medium high. Oil grate.
  • Step 4
    Remove the pork from the bag, reserving the marinade. Bring the reserved marinade to a boil in a small saucepan and cook until reduced by half, about 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Step 5
    Place the pork on the grill. Cover and cook, turning the tenderloin only once, until internal temperature reaches 140°F , about 5 to 7 minutes per side. Brush the sauce over the tenderloin during the final minutes of cooking and serve the remainder on the side.
  • Step 6
    Remove the tenderloin from the heat and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Slice crosswise into thin pieces before serving.
