Pork Tenderloin with Molasses Cider Glaze balances deep, caramel notes of molasses with the bright tang of apple cider vinegar for a glossy, well-rounded finish. Warm ginger, garlic, and a touch of chile add gentle heat that complements the juicy pork without overpowering it. Serve for a weeknight dinner or a casual weekend cookout when you want bold flavor with minimal fuss.
