Tenderloin turned out excellent, very tender and juicy. Marinade and glaze work together with the flavor of the pork very well. Be certain to take the internal temperature before you cut it open though, as the recipe is very specific to the size and cut of the tenderloin. Internal temp. of pork is 155 - 160 degrees fahrenheit.
My tenderloin turned out good, but I wish the instructions were written a bit better. I used one large porkloin that needed double the time. It would be helpful if the recipe included the internal temperature for doneness. Also, I would like if the recipe divided the marinade ingredients from the glaze, I made the mistake of adding the dijon to the marinade instead. Still - the pork was juicy and flavourful. Thanks!
Used the marinate with chicken instead and what a marinate... makes the chicken very soft and tender and I assume does the same thing for the pork..
