    1 1/2 cups tomato sauce (15 ounce can)
    2 tablespoons grainy mustard
    2 tablespoons blackstrap molasses
    1 tablespoon honey (or sugar)
    MARINADE:
    1/3 cup hoisin sauce
    1/3 cup soy sauce

    1 1/2" piece fresh ginger -- peeled and minced
    MEAT:

    Recipe



    To make barbecue sauce: In a small heavy saucepan over medium-high heat, boil vinegar, shallot, and garlic until reduced by half (about 5 minutes). Stir in tomato sauce and mustard, and simmer to thicken (about 15 minutes). Remove from heat, stir in molasses and honey, and let cool. Puree mixture in a blender, transfer to a jar, cover, and refrigerate overnight. Warm over low heat before serving.

    To marinate the meat: In a medium bowl, whisk together hoisin sauce, soy sauce, honey, garlic, and ginger. Place pork in a nonreactive baking dish or a large resealable plastic bag. Pour in all but 1/4 cup of soy mixture, and reserve remainder for basting. Marinate meat for at least 4 hours or overnight.

    Prepare the grill or grill pan. Cook tenderloins over a medium flame, basting with reserved marinade and turning occasionally, until the internal temperature reaches 150°F. on an instant-read thermometer (about 25 minutes).

    Transfer pork to a carving board with grooves, tent loosely with foil, and let stand 5 minutes before cutting into 1/4" thick slices and serving. Serve the Mustard Barbecue Sauce in its own dish.
