|Place all ingredients except pork in blender. Cover and blend until

Cover and grill pork 4 to 5 inches from medium heat 8 to 11 minutes,
turning frequently and brushing with reserved marinade, for medium
doneness (160º) or until pork is slightly pink when cut near bone. Discard
any remaining basting marinade.
