Bourbon Pork Tenderloin with Mustard Sauce
Marinating meat is so easy to do and it really gives a big flavor boost! I use Kentucky Bourbon in this marinade for a real taste of the South!
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup Bourbon
- 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
- 2 (1 pound each ) pork tenderloins
- 2/3 cup sour cream
- 2/3 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons dry mustard
- 4 green onions, finely chopped
Instructions
- Combine the bourbon, soy sauce and dark brown sugar in a glass mixing bowl and stir to combine.
- Pour into a large zip lock bag. Add tenderloins and seal. Refrigerate at least 2 hours, turning the meat occasionally.
- Remove from the marinade and discard the leftover marinade. Place on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Bake at 325 degrees for 55 to 65 minutes. ( I like to cook pork until it reaches 160 to 165 degrees on an instant read thermometer)
- While the tenderloins bake, prepare the Mustard Sauce. ( Or prepare it a day ahead so the flavors can develop) Note: The flavor is pretty intense, so if you want to tone it down a bit, just use less dry mustard. I love the flavor of this sauce, so I make the recipe exactly as I have given it here.
- Combine 2/3 cup sour cream, 2/3 cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons dry mustard and 4 chopped green onion. Cover and chill.
- When ready to serve, slice the tenderloins and serve with the mustard sauce.

Marinating the tenderloins:
Remember to always marinate meat in the refrigerator – never at room temperature.Don’t use a metal container – always use either glass or plastic. I like the large zip lock bags the best. Also, always discard the remaining marinade after use. Marinating meat like this helps ensure you get a nice juicy result.
After marinating, place the tenderloins on a rack in a shallow roasting pan and bake.
