• Prepare grill for direct heat grilling over high heat. Once grill is hot place marinated pork onto the hottest part of the grill and cook the tenderloin for about 3 minutes on each of its four sides. Cook just until the pork feels firm and springs back when pressed or an instant-read thermometer reads 145*F when inserted into the thickest part of the tenderloin. Be careful not to overcook it.
• Remove from grill and allow to rest for 5 minutes before cutting. Slice in about 3/4" slices and serve.
