Pork Tenderloin - THX for the help

I appreciate all the responses to my request for a good pork tenderloin recipe. I bookmarked them for exciting future cooks. This was an engagement announcement party for our friend's daughter with about 50-60 young, hungry kids. For easy of cooking and presentation, I chose the recipe from Hoss.
Wicker's marinade, honey, Cavender's Greek seasoning and Seasoned salt. I only had time to marinade for about 4 hours. I had a case (12 tenderloins) to cook, so I did minimal trimming (mostly the large piece of 'silver skin') and dropped them in baggies with the marinade.
I cooked at 350* indirect, but you can see this was a challenge on my large. I did a lot of lifting the AR out, swapping the meat around to keep them cooking evenly, especially with some quite larger than others.

When they reached about 135* internal, I removed the AR, the drip pan, the spider and the pizza stone indirect piece (HOT :ohmy: ). I then put a small grid on the firebox ledge and seared each piece on the hot fire. I then put 6 each in 1/2 steamer foil pans, sealed in foil and into a cooler with towels.
When I got to the party, they were still pretty hot to the touch.
Everyone LOVED them. Served with rolls, mayonnaise, honey mustard or Raspberry Chipotle toppings! :woohoo:
Sorry for no other pics, the wifey had already left with the fresh veggies and fruit plates and I was alone, very busy and had to change out of the smoky clothes and get over to the party. :( :ohmy:

IT WAS !
I tried to tell them we didn't need to cook but about 6 of them, but the women would not listen. (can you imagine that?).
They only ate 5, I think, leaving us with 7 tenderloins left over - gonna make good leftovers later this week!
They were SO juicy and had good flavor.
Thanks. -
GREAT!
Women???? I know what you mean!
