Ingredients

2  lb  pork tenderloin (2 small)<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

1/4  cup Kentucky Bourbon

1/4  cup soy sauce

1/4  cup brown sugar - packed

3  cloves garlic - chopped fine

1/4  cup Dijon mustard

1  tsp fresh ginger -- minced or 1/4 t dry

1  tsp        Worcestershire sauce

1/4  c        vegetable oil

Instructions

Mix all ingredients and add pork.  Let marinate for at least 8 hours and preferably over night.

Drain pork reserving the reserving the marinade.

I cook direct, on a raised grid at 325 - 375, turning basting about every 5 minutes.  I cook to 145 internal, pull, let it rest about 10 minutes and slice.

I like to add apple wood for smoke flavor, but hickory is also good.  

 

Notes

You can use pork loin in place of tenderloin, but I like to cut the loin, lengthwise, into 2-3 strips, about the same size as a tenderloin. This gives the marinade more surface area and you get more flavor pulled into the meat
