- 1 T. Dijon mustard
- 1 T. dried minced onion
- 1 tsp. oyster sauce

- To prepare the marinade, gather all ingredients, measure and mix them in a 9x13" glass baking dish.

- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
- Remove from fridge and allow to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.

- Choose to either grill both or just one tenderloin. Freeze the non-grilled tenderloin in a gallon freezer bag with a bit of the marinade.
- Grill for approximately 25 minutes, turning once.
- Stick a meat thermometer into the thickest part and remove pork from grill when its internal temperature reaches 145.
- Allow the pork to sit and rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
- Heat the reserved marinade and drizzle over the top of the sliced pork.
- Serve over rice and accompany with steamed snow peas.
- One tenderloin serves 6, two tenderloins will serve 12.
- Enjoy!
