Marinated Pork Tenderloin

Marinated Pork Tenderloin

***Susan's Note: Tried this last night, and my husband really liked it, more than any other pork tenderloin recipe I've made. He grilled one 1.64 lb tenderloin on medium high indirect heat for about 35 min (until an instant read thermometer read 140 degrees). I substituted sherry vinegar for the sherry - you could also substitute balsamic vinegar or apple juice. I only marinated it for 4 hours.
Served with green beans and sweet potato fries, apple crisp for dessert.

"A slightly sweet marinade that makes for the best tasting pork you will ever have."
