How to Make Asian Barbecued Pork Tenderloin

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup hoisin sauce, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, 1 teaspoon grated ginger, 1 clove minced garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes.
  2. Place 1.5-2 lb pork tenderloin in a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the pork, ensuring it's fully coated.
  3. Cover the dish and marinate the pork in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, for maximum flavor.
  4. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with foil.
  5. Remove the pork from the marinade and place it on the prepared baking sheet. Reserve the marinade.
  6. Baste the pork with the reserved marinade.
  7. Roast for 20 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 145-150°F (63-66°C).
  8. Let the pork rest for 10 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain. Serve and enjoy!
