This grape sauce is AMAZING!!! It is such a simple way to dress up a tenderloin. I made it for my parents and company and it was a big hit! I am making it again tomorrow and will use it again and again!

My husband and I loved this recipe! I did use onion because that's what I had on hand and I eyeballed everything else; that's how I cook. I had already cooked pork that I just heated up and then served the sauce over it. It was great tasting!! Will make this one again and again.

I loved this recipe! My guests raved about it and ate seconds and thirds. The only change I made was to sear meat first and bake in 400 deg oven for 25 mins. Used instant read thermometer to check when 145 deg internally, removed from oven and let set for 10~15 mins loosly covered with foil. Made sauce during this resting time.

I agree with the comments about 5 spice pdr. Leave it out if you don't like it but if you do, this is a delicious recipe just as it is. I used green grapes that were past their prime. It is a great way to use up grapes that aren't crisp anymore. The pork and sauce are very good together. This is a "make again" according to my family.

This is a very flavorful recipe. Make sure you like 5-spice powder or you may be disappointed. I used an immersion blender for the sauce and it worked perfectly. Served with roasted new potatoes and a salad and it was great!

I ended up baking the pork in a shallow dish at 325 for 45 minutes. The pork turned out great. The grape sauce leaves something to be desired. Was not work the work to make the sauce. Will not make again.

Sorry, I didn't much care for the 5-spice flavor in this recipe. I prefer cooking pork tenderloin with wine instead.

Delicious! Wish I had more sauce, may double it next time. Everyone loved it including the kids (12 and 5) but I served their sauce on the side. Such an different and enjoyable way to serve pork tenderloin. I didn't have fresh gingeroot so I substituted crystalized ginger. Served it with roasted red potatoes. Plan on making this for guests.

This was not one of my favorite recipes.The meat turned out well but I was not impressed with the sauce. My kids wouldn't eat it, and my husband thought it was alright. Maybe I am not use to the taste of the 5 spice.
