World’s Best Pork Marinade
Have you all seen my World’s Best Steak Marinade recipe? That has been my go-to all-time favorite recipe for any red meats for years now. Having an incredible go-to recipe like that is awesome. I know each and every time that everyone will LOVE what I am cooking. This recipe has worked out so well for me that I decided I needed to tweak it somehow and come up with something similar for pork.
I was really striking out when cooking pork. We tried a bunch of different recipes and none of them were hitting the mark for me or my family.
Pork Marinade
I decided that the flavor of my meat marinade is what makes us all LOVE it. The combination of sugar, garlic, and soy sauce makes the most delicious decadent marinade. This is exactly what I needed for pork.
Let the tweaking begin. I felt like I was running some sort of grand experiments in my kitchen. I had all my tools, ingredients, and taste buds busy at work. Finally, after long hard, and exhausting taste testing 🙂 I have the recipe that I dreamed of for pork!
This recipe has the same exact appeal as the steak marinade. It is a delicious combination of savory and sweet.
How To Make Pork Marinade
Ingredients Needed
- 3/4 Cup Soy Sauce
- 3/4 Cup Brown Sugar
- 2 Cloves Garlic minced
- 1 Onion chopped
Add the soy sauce into a bowl
Add in the brown sugar, minced garlic, and chopped onions
Mix well
Add your pork to a dish
Pour marinade over your meat
Cook your pork as you would prefer. Grill, bake, fry, etc. We grilled ours and look how insanely delicious! It was pure perfection!
Another Easy Way To Marinade Pork
Whisk up the ingredients in a bowl and then transfer the marinade with the pork into a sealable gallon bag. Then every hour or so go in and massage the meat in the bag so the marinade can soak into the meat even more.
How Long Do You Marinade Pork
You will want to marinate your pork for a minimum of one hour, but 5-6 hours is best. Or you can go all the way up to 12 hours in this marinade.
What Can You Use This Pork Marinade On
Any type of pork you would like. Tenderloin, Butterfly Cut Chops, Regular bone-in or bone-out pork chops, and so on. This pork marinade recipe is versatile. You will find it provides an astonishing flavor to your pork that can’t be replicated by any store-brand bottle of marinade.
What Does The Soy Sauce In Marinade Do
The biggest thing is flavor, but you will also find that soy sauce somewhat brines the pork so that you have incredible flavor but also super juicy pork to serve up to your family and friends.
Can I Make This Marinade In Advance
Sure, you can prep this marinade the night before you plan to use it. Then when you are ready, toss in the pork and allow it to marinate the meat. Once you toss on the grill or place it in the oven, discard any leftover marinade you might have.
Can You Baste Meat With Marinade
This depends. If you leave some of the marinades out and placed them in a different container that doesn’t touch the raw pork, then yes. But, if you are planning to baste your pork with the leftover marinade that had your pork sitting in it, then no. The reason being is that has raw meat particles, and if you are basting meat, you are running a high chance of food poisoning.
Give this pork marinade recipe a try today. We love it and have been using this same recipe for years.

OMG this sounds AWESOME! I’ll definitely be using this! Thanks!
This sounds sooo good! Would love to have you share it on the Found & Foraged linky party held every Saturday night at 8PM CST on http://houseofhipsters.com/ Hope to see you there!
I could have used this last week! Thanks so much for linking this up at Best of the Weekend!
Sounds delicious. What cut of pork would you suggest??? Thanks for sharing the recipe. See you at the next Inspire Me Mondays Link-Up!
How cute! I love them on strings. This would be pretty cool to do around Christmas too.
You mention Honey in your paragraph, but there is no Honey mentioned in the ingredients.
I use honey in my steak marinade which is linked in this post as well. I wanted to mimic the flavor but used brown sugar to sweeten.
I just love this marinade, and so does my family!,,,
Do you use brown sugar or white sugar?
I am so sorry, brown sugar
This was excellent. I used the recipe to marinade four pork tenderloins and it was absolutely fantastic.
I’m new to Ninja grilling and air frying so I will try your delicious sounding recipes.
It looks like you are using the same marinade on the cooked meat that you used to marinate the raw meat?
Is this ok to do? I know it wouldn’t be for chicken…its ok to do for pork? Anyone may answer please!
Never mind. The USDA says it is ok as long as you boil the marinade for several minutes in order to kill off any bacteria that is there from the raw meat.
I wanted to share in case others weren’t sure either.
I too added in a couple of teaspoons of sesame oil, it was delicious!
