Grilled Pork Tenderloin Recipe

Coat the tenderloin with green seasoning, paprika, rosemary, salt, and black pepper, then let it marinate in a container for at least one hour or overnight for a more robust flavor. For a shorter grilling time, cut the tenderloin into two equal-sized pieces.

Prep your Grill by coating the grilling surface with some cooking spray or brush with cooking oil and warm your coals or briquettes.

Using an Oven/Grill Thermometer, check once the grill temperature is around 450-500 °F/ 232-260 °C, it’s time to place the marinated tenderloin on the grill over direct heat and cover.

Cook the tenderloin for 15-20 minutes and turn it every 3 minutes to make sure it cooks evenly on all sides and baste with the marinade. To prevent burning, move over indirect heat to finish cooking.

Using a Meat Thermometer, check the tenderloin's internal temperature and if the temperature is 145 °F/ 63 °C, remove it from the grill and let it rest on a cutting board for 10 minutes. If you do not have a thermometer, use the thumb and palm trick to test the firmness of the meat or cut a small slit into the meat to check if the inside is thoroughly cooked.

Slice and serve with your choice of sides or as an appetizer. You may also pair it with mashed potato. Try our recipe, How to make Mashed Potatoes without Milk.
