Comments
- I like to leave just a hint of pink in our pork tenderloin. When you think it is getting close, cut tenderloin in half to check, or using a meat thermometer, remove once internal temperature reaches about 135-140F. It will continue cooking for several minutes once removed from the heat.
- One pork tenderloin will usually serve three folks a pretty generous helping.
- A coffee grinder works great on those peppercorns or other spices; might want a small one just for spices. My wife does not like her coffee to taste like peppercorns!
- We serve this with apple chutney, Picatta sauce or a Bourbon cream.
- This has become a weekend and wedding favorite, enjoy!
