I used this recipe for the 4th of July get together for 24 people. Course I have to increase this by 3rd's because I had about 12lbs. to get ready. This is the most fantastic recipe for port tenderloin it was moist and tender, the flavor was outstanding. Needless to say I didn't have any leftovers. Thanks so much for this wonderful recipe. It is a keeper in my house.

Was universally scarfed down by a family of picky eaters! I thought it was a bit salty, even though I used low sodium soy sauce and substituted some pineapple juice for the soy sauce. I substituted 1/4 tsp ground ginger for the fresh ginger. I marinated for almost 2 days. But DH thought the flavor was very good and two children asked for seconds ~~ an unusual occurrence. Will definitely make again. Thanks for posting.

Emilyrae...what a great recipe!!! We like ours a tad sweeter, so I tweaked it a bit. I added 1/4c. pineapple juice, decreased the soy sauce to 3/4 cup and substituted 1/4 tsp ground ginger for the fresh ginger. Was only able to marinate for 3-4hours, but that was just fine!!! Grilling wasn't an option here in raining, yucky Indiana, so I broiled it. It was absolutely fabulous. 4 teenage boys ended up here at meal time, so we had to share:-) All 7 of us were amazed at the great flavor and juiciness of this. It is a keeper, for sure. Thanks!
