Number Of Ingredients 5

½ cup soy sauce
¼ cup teriyaki sauce
2 tablespoons liquid smoke flavoring
¼ teaspoon onion powder

Tips:

  • Choose a tenderloin that is about 1 pound in weight. This will ensure that it cooks evenly and quickly.
  • Use a sharp knife to score the tenderloin. This will help the marinade penetrate the meat and flavor it evenly.
  • Make sure the marinade contains an acidic ingredient, such as vinegar or lemon juice. This will help to tenderize the meat.
  • Allow the tenderloin to marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. The longer it marinates, the more flavor it will absorb.
  • Cook the tenderloin over medium heat. This will help to prevent the meat from drying out.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the tenderloin is cooked to your desired doneness. The internal temperature should be 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 150 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, and 155 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-well.
  • Let the tenderloin rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat.

Conclusion:

Marinated pork tenderloin is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion.
