How long does it normally take to cook a pork tenderloin?
Put the pork tenderloin in a baking dish that fits it easily without needing to bend it at all. Put it uncovered into an oven that has been preheated to 350°F. Bake for 20-27 minutes, until the internal temperature on an instant read thermometer is at 145°F.
What should a pork tenderloin be cooked at?
145 degrees F.
We cook our pork to 145 degrees F. This means the pork will be barely pink in the middle, safe to eat, and ultra juicy. You can cook pork tenderloin to anywhere between 145 degrees F and 160 degrees F. Just keep in mind that keeping it as close to 145 degrees F will result in the juiciest, most tender piece of meat.
What’s the difference between a tenderloin and a fritter?
Even though most pork fritters are made from pork tenderloin, you can expect a much different texture. The extensive pounding process transforms a tenderloin into a fritter. This means that while relatively tender, fritters have a more stodgy, grainier feel as compared to a cut of pork tenderloin.
