Balsamic Pork Tenderloin

Balsamic Pork Tenderloin is one of our favorite Sunday meals.  It is easy to fix and can be cooked in the oven or the grill.

Balsamic Pork Tenderloin

I have a dozen different pork tenderloin recipes that we love to use, but most of them require marinating.  When I don’t have time for to marinate, this is always the recipe I pick.  I’ve been making this balsamic pork tenderloin recipe for years and everyone still loves it!

Balsamic Pork

You prepare the pork by cutting small slits into the meat and filling them with chopped fresh garlic.  The garlic in combination with steak seasoning, rosemary, thyme and balsamic vinegar make for a very flavorful piece of meat.

The only downside to this recipe is that it sets off my smoke detector every time!  Don’t let that deter you!  You can either grill it outside or do what I do.  Before I open the oven door, I always station someone with a kitchen towel below the smoke detector to blow away the smoke.

Be sure and cover your cookie sheet or pan with foil or parchment paper for an easier cleanup. This dish is flavorful and moist and it looks fancy too when you garnish it with some fresh herbs and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar.  This is a great meal to serve when you have company!

    Is this good cooked ahead and reheated? I’d like to serve it for Easter lunch as soon as we get home from church but don’t want to take time to cook it and smoke up the house with guests arriving.

      Paula, I would probably slice it and reheat it sliced so it’s quicker and does’t risk drying it out. Also, when you initially cook be sure and not over cook it. Pork can be cooked to 145 F and be safe to eat and then when you reheat it, it will cook a bit more.

      Just grill it at a medium heat and turn it a couple of times. I always use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature.
