Steps:
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large skillet, I use 12" skillet, pour enough olive oil to coat the bottom of the pan. Sweat the garlic and onion together, do not burn the garlic, it will become too nutty. Once the garlic and onion is cooked down, the onion is tranparent, remove from the oil and place in a 9X13 pan. I usually take the ground pepper and salt and mix them together so that coating the pork is easier. Take the pork out of the vacume sealed bag, rinse and pat dry. Take the salt and pepper and pat onto the pork, sear on all sides. After searing on all sides, place in the 9X13 pan on top of the garlic and onions. Deglaze the pan with the balsamic vinegar, reduce and then pour over the pork, onions, and garlic. Place in middle rack for about 20-25 minutes until middle of pork is about medium well to well done.
- When serving, I slice the pork and then take the glaze and onion/garlic mixture and pour over the pork. It's delicious -- ENJOY.

Steps:
- Whisk balsamic vinegar, garlic, rosemary, honey, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Place pork in a resealable plastic bag and pour balsamic mixture on top to coat. Squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Place the bag in a container to avoid leaks, and marinate in the refrigerator 6 to 8 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
- Remove pork from the marinade and shake off excess. Place pork in a roasting pan or baking dish. Reserve marinade.
- Roast pork in the preheated oven until slightly pink in the center, about 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Remove pork from the oven, place on a cutting board, and cover loosely with aluminum foil. Let rest for 10-20 minutes.

Steps:
- Grill preparation:.
- Sear the tenderloins on all sides, then grill for about 20-30 minutes, rotating every 10 minutes, until the internal temperature is 160 degrees. Try to let it rest before slicing.
- Oven preparation:.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Heat canola oil in a large, heavy saute pan over medium-high heat. Working in batches if necessary, add pork, and brown all over, about 4 minutes.
- Transfer pan to oven. Roast pork, turning occasionally, until the internal temperature is 160 degrees, about 20 minutes. Transfer pork to a cutting board, and try to let it rest 10 minutes before slicing.
Tips:
- To ensure the pork tenderloin is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. It should reach 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 160°F (71°C) for medium.
- If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check the doneness of the pork by cutting into it. The meat should be slightly pink in the center for medium-rare or white all the way through for medium.
- Let the pork tenderloin rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
- For a more flavorful marinade, try using a combination of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, rosemary, and thyme.
- If you don't have balsamic vinegar, you can substitute red wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar.
- Serve the grilled pork tenderloin with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad.
Conclusion:
Grilled pork tenderloin with balsamic vinegar is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The pork is tender and juicy, and the balsamic vinegar adds a sweet and tangy flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try.
