Ingredients:
* garlic
* fresh ginger
* hoisin sauce
* rice wine vinegar
* brown sugar
* sesame oil
* soy sauce
* red pepper flakes
* 1 pound pork tenderloin
* 1 – 15
Recipe:
Sauce:
1/2 cup hoisin sauce, available in the Asian section of the grocery store
1/4 cup rice vinegar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon soy sauce
3 large garlic cloves, crushed
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh grated ginger
Red pepper flakes to taste
Pork:
1 – one pound pork tenderloin, sliver skin removed
1 – 15” Fire and Flavor Cedar or Oak Grilling Plank, soaked
FIRST Combine sauce ingredients in a small sauce pan and place over medium heat. Cook 4-5 minutes, or until reduced. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
NEXT Preheat grill to 350°F or medium-low heat. Place pork in a large reseal able plastic bag. Reserving ½ cup of sauce for later use, add remaining sauce to plastic bag, toss gently to coat and let marinate in refrigerator for 30 minutes or up to 4 hours.
LAST Remove pork from marinade and discard remaining marinade. Sear pork directly on oil grilled grates for 1 minute on all four sides. Remove from grill and place soaked plank on hot grill. Close lid, allow to heat for 3 minutes, flip plank and place pork onto heated side of plank. Grill with lid closed for 15-20 minutes, or until pork reaches 145 degrees. Remove pork and plank from grill. Tent pork loosely with foil and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Slice and serve with reserved sauce.

This sauce was awesome! And very versatile for other dishes too! Was worried about only marinating for 20-30 min but it was actually perfect. I think the sauce would have been TOO much if I let it go longer than that. (Generally I like to marinate over night, but that’s a lot of pre-planning that I just don’t do…hehe) And once again the cedar planks did not disappoint. However…ahem. Should probably soak for longer and not heat them on the grill on high…. as we learned the hard way… hahahaha
