Ingredients

¼ cup - bourbon
¼ cup - soy sauce
¼ cup - brown sugar
¼ cup - dijon mustard
3 tablespoons - olive oil
1 tbsp - fresh ginger
3 cloves - garlic
2 - whole pork tenderloins

Instructions

Place the first seven ingredients in a bowl and whisk to combine. Pour into a large zipper bag or glass container large enough to hold the pork tenderloins and marinate overnight or up to 2 days.
Preheat a grill to high heat and oil the grates.
Remove tenderloins from the bag, reserving the marinade, and grill for 14-15 minutes, turning halfway through or until the internal temperature is 140°F. Remove from heat and set meat aside to rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the juices to rest and redistribute.
While the meat is resting, place the reserved marinade in a small pan. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes.
Slice the tenderloin on a bias and serve with the sauce if desired.
