Preparation

Prepare the Marinade (Optional)
In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, and apple cider vinegar. Mix well and set aside if you choose to use the marinade.

Prepare the Pork Tenderloin
Trim any excess fat from the pork tenderloin and pat it dry with paper towels. This helps achieve a nice sear.

Make the Garlic-Rosemary Mixture
Mince the garlic cloves and chop the fresh rosemary. In a bowl, combine minced garlic, chopped rosemary, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create a paste.

Marinate the Pork (Optional)

Grilling

Grill the Pork Tenderloin
Place the pork tenderloin on the grill. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, turning every 5 minutes until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

Rest the Meat
Once cooked, remove the pork from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a moist and flavorful tenderloin.
