"Another recipe I found floating around on paper...been wanting to try it...recipe says to cook it on a kettle-style grill...(note) but I think you could cook it on a George Foreman Grill or even a cast iron grill...cooking time does not include marinating time..."

I made this last night for a really great dinner! The marinade is really great, and doesn't take long to mix up. I marinated for about 5 hours, and cut a tenderloin into boneless "chops". So tender and juicy, with just the right flavors! Thanks for sharing! Made for PRMR tag game.
