This marinade is here for flavor, pork tenderloin doesn`t need any tenderizing. And It does the job! You have the acidity from the lemon which helps penatrate the flavors into the meat. I did add olive oil because it also helps the herbs penatrate the meat, and helps hold moisture in during cooking and keeps the meat from sticking to the grates of the grill. Love all the herbs fresh picked from the garden. I did up the garlic to 4 cloves. Marinaded for 6 hours. Thanks!

This recipe is excellent. We use it all the time and it's annother excellent way to BBQ Pork Tenderloin. Typically we eat only 1 of 2 - 1lb tenderloins. I often freeze the other in the marinade to be enjoyed later...like when we go camping. Thanks for posting!!
