Tips & Tricks
- Pork Tenderloin is known for having a tough silver skin that should be trimmed off before cooking. John Henry's does this part for you! When you open your package of Pork Tenderloin it will be ready for seasoning and cooking; no prep required!
- If your skillet cannot transfer to the oven, use a 9x13 baking dish.
- Speed things up with an Instant Pot! You can sear it right in the pot, then deglaze your IP with water and cook for 6 minutes on high pressure.
- Once your tenderloin is in the oven, get some veggies or potatoes going, they should all finish cooking around the same time.
- When checking the temperature of your pork, be sure to test the portion of the tenderloin that is the thickest.
- Your tenderloin is considered a "dark" meat and will still look pink in the middle when you slice it, just like a beef steak. As long as it has reached an internal temperature of 145 degrees then it is fully cooked and safe to eat. Enjoy all that juicy, pink goodness!
