Yield: Makes 6 servings
3 garlic cloves, minced (I used 1 TBSP of jarred)

Combine first 10 ingredients in a shallow dish or large zip-top plastic freezer bag. Cut pork diagonally into 1-inch-thick slices (I didn't do), and add to tequila mixture. Cover or seal, and chill 1 hour, turning occasionally (I chilled 7+ hours).
Remove pork from marinade, discarding marinade.
Grill, covered with grill lid, over high heat (400° to 500°) 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until done. (D just grilled it).
