Huli Huli Pork

This is a great recipe to make as the weather is getting warmer and the grills are coming out. I guess this is a Hawaiian dish that I got from Better Homes and Gardens. We had this a while ago and it was really, really good.

Huli Huli Pork

2 1-2 # pork tenderloins or 1 3-4# tenderloin
3/4 c ketchup
1/3 c soy sauce
3 T brown sugar
3 T lime juice or sweet mirin (I'm not even sure what that is-I used the lime juice)
1 T grated fresh ginger
4 cloves garlic, minced

Place pork in a large plastic bag; set aside. For marinade, combine ketchup, soy sauce, brown sugar, lime juice, ginger and garlic. Transfer 3/4 c marinade to small container, set aside. Pour remaining marinade over pork. Chill 4-24 hours, turning bag occasionally. Drain pork, reserving marinade. Grill, brushing with marinade from bag. Remove from grill, cover with foil and let stand 10 minutes. Place reserved marinade in saucepan, bring to boil, transfer to serving dish and serve with pork.
