Close your eyes and think of your weeknights. Do you often scramble to put together a healthy dinner for your family? This is one of our biggest challenges during the week. We are going in so many different directions, it is hard to carve out time to cook dinner.

The Farmer John Fresh Pork Tenderloin is so versatile – you can cook this on a grill, or even sauté, roast or slow-cook – the possibilities are endless! For this recipe, I used our grill because, during the school week, I need dinner on the table in a hurry and it really locks in the delicious flavors.

You only need a few ingredients including:

• Mustard seeds
• Dijon mustard
• Minced garlic
• Honey
• Avocado oil
• Salt and pepper

Add the marinade ingredients to a bowl and mix well.

How do you cook pork tenderloin on a gas grill?

To cook pork tenderloin on a gas grill, you need to preheat your grill to 400 degrees. I like to heat the grill to temperature, then use a grill brush to make sure the grill slats are clean.

Slice or cut the tenderloin into smaller pieces before cooking.

Add the marinated pork tenderloin directly to the grill slats.

How long does it take to grill pork tenderloin on the grill?

Close the lid and grill for 10 minutes. Open the grill lid and use tongs to flip the tenderloin slices over. Cook another 10 minutes and check the internal temperature with a thermometer.

What temperature should pork tenderloin be?

Cook the pork tenderloin until the internal temperature measures 145 degrees.

Can you grill pork tenderloin on foil?

I like to cook the pork tenderloin directly on the grill, as shown above, but you can easily cook the pork tenderloin on foil if that is easier for you.

Here is a close up of the meat so you can see how juicy this pork tenderloin turned out. This recipe is naturally gluten free, and is paleo as well! Farmer John California Natural Fresh Pork can easily be your go-to meal for busy weeknights, tailgating or even entertaining this season!
