Juicy Pork Tenderloin Recipes

Steps:

• NOTE: The success of this cooking method will depend upon how accurate the temperature of your oven is and how well your oven retains heat. Adjust cooking time +/- according to your individual oven.
• NOTICE: If you have a very old oven that is not well insulated, this recipe may not work for you, as heat retention/residual heat is important to the success of this recipe.
• Determine the EXACT weight of roast from the meat wrapper. Weight will determine how long to cook the roast.
• Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Remove tenderloin from refrigerator. Season meat as desired. Place seasoned meat in an uncovered roasting pan on a shelf in the bottom 1/3 of your oven.
• Bake EXACTLY 5 1/2 minutes PER POUND. Adjust +/- according to your oven's accuracy and heat retention. NOTE:.
• IF YOU HAVE AN OVEN PROBE OR THERMOMETER THAT HAS A WIRE THAT GOES THROUGH THE SIDE OF THE OVEN DOOR, BY ALL MEANS USE IT AND SET THE TEMPERATURE ALARM FOR 140 DEGREES. REMOVE MEAT FROM OVEN WHEN ALARM ALERT GOES OFF (probably before an hour has expired).
• Turn oven OFF and DO NOT open oven door for 45 to 1 hour, OR sooner IF you are using a probe thermometer and it alerts that internal meat temp is at 140 degrees. Remove pork from oven, lightly cover with foil, and let rest 5-10 minutes to redistribute internal juices. Roast should be done, very slightly pink in the center, and very moist.
• After resting 10 minutes, the roast should reach a safe 145-150 degrees.
• NOTE:******* For anyone questioning this method of cooking, it really does reach the proper internal temperature on a thermometer. According to Sara Moulton on FoodTV, trichinosos is killed at 138 degrees, and 145 is a safe temperature for pork, although the USDA recommends 160 degrees (meat will be much drier). If the center of the meat is not a little pink, it is overcooked!
• VARIATION: To make Roasted Veggies along with the tenderloin, peel carrots and potatoes, and cut into about 1-inch cubes. Season as desired and drizzle with a little oil. Add vegetables to pan around (but NOT touching) pork tenderloin. Cook tenderloin as instructed above. The roasted potatoes and carrots should be done when the roast is done. You may need to adjust the size of the potatoes and carrots depending upon the weight of your tenderloin and how long you cook it.

Steps:

• Mix all (except cornstarch) ingredients and rub mixture into loins.
• Refrigerate 2-4 hours or overnight.
• Place on rack in pan and roast at 350 for 35 to 45 mins or until juices run clear.
• let stand 10 mins then slice into medallions.
• pour pan juices into sauce pan and add cornstarch.
• cook sauce for one minute more till thick.
• Watch pan juices as it cooks as sometimes I add a little water as it cooks for more sauce.

Steps:

• Dissolve 1/2 cup salt and sugar with water in large bowl.
• Submerge pork, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Mix remaining ingredients in a teacup and let sit at room temperature.
• I've substituted Italian seasoning for the herbs and it works very well.
• Rinse roast under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
• Rub herb mixture over entire pork loin.
• Place in loaf pan and cook at 325F for 90 minutes.
• Tent pork and let rest for 10 minutes.
• Slice and serve with stuffing or mashed potatoes and gravy.

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Trim as much of the fat off as you can.
• Season with Salt& Pepper.
• Roll tenderloin in flour and coat well.
• Heat olive oil in cast iron skillet.
• Brown the tenderloin on all sides.
• Mix the soups together with the hot water.
• Add the soups slowly to the roast allowing the onion pieces to rest on the top of the tenderloin as much as possible.
• Cover and bake in oven for approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes or until the inner temperature reaches 170 degrees (well done).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Trim any excess fat, and rinse pork under cold water, set on paper towels and pat dry.
• Season all sides with salt and pepper to your own taste.
• Heat oil in large frying pan over medium-high heat. Get the pan nice and hot!
• Place pork into pan, and brown/sear on all sides, don't forget the ends. About 2-3 minutes per sides, if your pan is very hot. Check so you don't burn it or under sear it.
• Remove pork from pan and set on a plate.
• Turn down heat to medium, and add the balsamic vinegar.
• Using a plastic spatula, scrape any bits off of the bottom of the pan, that's the good stuff!
• Stir in dark brown sugar (can sub regular brown sugar, but dark is better), using spatula and keep scraping the bottom and stirring the sauce constantly. Don't worry, it's very easy.
• Do this for about 2-3 minutes til sauce has reduced and is thickened a little. Just don't do it too long, because it still has to bake and you don't want to end up with burnt tar to roof your house with!
• Turn heat off.
• Place pork back into the skillet and turn several (4-5) times to coat/glaze all sides, ending with it bottom-side up.
• Sprinkle bottom side evenly with 1/4 teaspoons (half) the thyme, using your fingers crushing it as you sprinkle.
• Sprinkle with half the garlic powder, (1/4 teaspoons also).
• Place pork, newly seasoned-side down into (greased) shallow roasting or baking dish.
• Now season the top the same way.
• Pour remaining glaze over pork.
• Let rest 10 minutes, and keep re-glazing with the sauce in the pan. (Just tilt the pan and spoon it over.).
• Place in oven and roast for 30-35 minutes. (35 if slightly larger).
• Remove from oven, loosely cover with foil, and let rest for 10-15 minutes.
• This gives you time to heat up that corn or green beans!
• Remove pork from baking dish to platter, slice and plate.
• Stir pan juices and pour over slices. (Don't scrape the bottom or any super thick parts, though, just mostly the juices).
• And serve! :).
• *Tip: If wanting to serve roasted potato wedges with this, bake them right along with the roast (seperate dish!) for 45 minutes uncovered. It will all get done at the same time with the resting time of the pork! HTH! :).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Mix bread crumbs and olive oil in bowl to reach consistency that would be moist enough to stick to the meat when pressed. Place pork on a shallow cooking sheet. Press the crumb mixture onto all sides of the meat until there is no pink showing, usually 1/4 inch thick.
• Bake for at least 35 minutes until a meat thermometer reads 165 degrees F (75 degrees C) or until there is no pink when the pork is cut. Let the pork rest for 10 minutes, then cut into 1/2 inch slices.

Steps:

• Place pork tenderloin in a slow cooker with the contents of the soup packet. Pour water, wine, and soy sauce over the top, turning the pork to coat. Carefully spread garlic over the pork, leaving as much on top of the roast during cooking as possible. Sprinkle with pepper, cover, and cook on low setting for 4 hours. Serve with cooking liquid on the side as au jus.
