Ingredients

FOR THE BBQ SAUCE

  • 2 cups peaches peeled + sliced
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • cup ketchup
  • cup apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons garlic
  • 2 teaspoons ginger

FOR THE PORK

  • 2 pork tenderloins fat trimmed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

FOR THE BBQ SAUCE

  • Combine 2 cups peaches, ½ cup brown sugar, ⅓ cup ketchup, ⅓ cup apple cider vinegar, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 teaspoons garlic (or frozen cubes) and 2 teaspoons ginger (or frozen cubes) in a food processor or blender. Transfer ½ cup sauce to a small bowl for basting.

FOR THE PORK

  • Drizzle pork tenderloins with 2 tablespoons olive oil and season liberally with salt and pepper, and 2 teaspoons garlic powder.
  • Prepare grill over medium-high heat. Grill pork tenderloins until brown and meat thermometer inserted into center registers 140°F, turning occasionally with tongs, about 15 minutes. Brush pork all over with ½ of reserved bbq sauce.
  • Grill pork until glazed, turning and brushing with more basting sauce, about 3-5 minutes longer.
  • Transfer pork to cutting board; let rest 10 minutes.
  • Warm the remaining bbq sauce in a pan.
  • Cut pork on a slight diagonal into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Arrange pork slices on a platter. Drizzle pork with warmed peach bbq sauce, reserving the extra for serving.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS

  • Serve the pork alongside grilled corn on the cob.

SWAP SUGGESTIONS

  • Protein: This same Peach BBQ Sauce is fantastic with grilled chicken.
  • Vegetarian: I love using this Peach BBQ Sauce on Cauliflower Steaks, but you could also skewer veggies, grill then serve with sauce.

WEEKEND PREP / MAKE AHEAD

  • Make the peach bbq sauce in advance and store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
