Steps:
- Puree first seven ingredients plus 2 Tbs. oil in a blender until smooth, about 30 seconds. Pour all but 3/4 cup of mixture into a gallon-sized zipper bag. Add meat; seal and refrigerate 30 minutes to 4 hours. Whisk 1/4 cup olive oil into remaining mixture for a dressing.
- Brush plums with oil; season with salt and pepper. Toast almonds in a 350-degree oven for 4 minutes. Finely shred cabbage. Set all aside.
- Build a fire on one side of grill, so you have direct and indirect heat. When coals are covered with white ash, place plums, cut side down, and meat over direct heat; cover and grill until meat is well seared, 5 minutes. Then turn pork to sear other side, 5 minutes more, rearranging plums to ensure even browning. Move meat and plums to indirect heat; cover and grill 12 to 13 minutes, or until meat thermometer inserted in thickest end of meat registers 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
- Remove meat and plums to a platter; let sit 5 minutes or up to 1 hour. Cut pork, crosswise, into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Toss cabbage with almonds, salt, pepper and most of dressing. Arrange slaw in each of six shallow bowls. Place a portion of pork over each and 2 plum halves alongside. Drizzle with remaining dressing; garnish with cilantro.

Steps:
- 1. Stir together garlic, cider vinegar, soy sauce, salt, pepper, and olive oil in a small bowl.
- 2. Place tenderloins in a large zipper-type plastic bag and pour marinade over pork and seal bag. Marinate at least 20 minutes up to overnight.
- 3. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Sear the tenderloins on all sides, then grill for about 20-30 minutes, rotating every 10 minutes, until the internal temperature is 160 degrees. Let it rest about 5-10 minutes before slicing.
- 4. Oven preparation: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Heat 2 tablespoons canola oil in a large, heavy saute pan over medium-high heat. Working in batches if necessary, add pork, and brown all over, about 4 minutes. Transfer pan to oven. Roast pork, turning occasionally, until the internal temperature is 160 degrees, about 20 minutes. Transfer pork to a cutting board, and try to let it rest 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Tips:
- To ensure the pork tenderloin is cooked evenly, it's crucial to use a meat thermometer to check its internal temperature. The ideal internal temperature for a perfectly cooked tenderloin is 145 degrees Fahrenheit (63 degrees Celsius).
- Preparing a flavorful marinade is essential for infusing the pork tenderloin with a burst of flavors. The marinade should consist of a combination of aromatic ingredients such as garlic, ginger, soy sauce, vinegar, and spices. Allow the tenderloin to marinate for at least 30 minutes, or ideally overnight, to maximize the absorption of flavors.
- Grilling the pork tenderloin over medium heat is recommended to prevent the meat from overcooking and becoming dry. Additionally, basting the tenderloin with the reserved marinade during grilling enhances its flavor and keeps it moist.
- Resting the grilled pork tenderloin for a few minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a tender and succulent texture.
Conclusion:
Grilled pork tenderloin is an incredibly versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a main course or sliced and added to salads, sandwiches, or wraps. With its tender texture, juicy flavor, and smoky aroma, this dish is sure to be a hit among family and friends. Experiment with different marinade combinations to create unique flavor profiles and enjoy this delicious and easy-to-make grilled pork tenderloin for various occasions.
