Hoisin and Bourbon-Glazed Pork Tenderloin image

This recipe is from Cooking Light. We loved it and make it regularly now. It's one that does not require marinating for hours before hand, yet the flavors are very tasty - a combination of sweet, sour, salty, and spicy. The prep time does not include time to get the grill ready.

This recipe was a disappointment. The pork was dry and the glaze was too sweet.

I found the pork to be a bit dry, but the glaze was delicious. I'll try it again with a different cooking method.

The glaze was a bit too sweet for my taste, but the pork was cooked perfectly. I'll try it again with a different glaze.

This was a great recipe! I used a pork loin instead of a tenderloin and it still turned out great. The glaze was perfect and the pork was juicy and tender.

Amazing recipe! The pork was tender and the glaze was out of this world. I served it with mashed potatoes and green beans, and it was a perfect meal.
