ANSWERS TO COMMON QUESTIONS ASKED ABOUT THIS RECIPE

ARE PORK LOIN AND PORK TENDERLOIN THE SAME THING?

No! Read this post to learn how they are completely different cuts of meat and how knowing this is helpful when cooking each one of them!

HOW DO YOU COOK PORK TENDERLOIN?

Pork tenderloin is very versatile. You can cook it in a skillet or in the oven and it’s also delicious on the grill/smoker. We enjoy Roast Pork Tenderloin and Potato Skillet as an oven meal, and also Roast Pork Tenderloin and Sweet Potatoes as a sheet pan meal.

If you’ve got an electric pressure cooker, you can make Instant Pot Cuban Pork Tenderloin with Black Beans and Rice in just minutes. Pork Tenderloin Medallions with Apple Cider Glaze is super easy, too.

Any fully cooked pork tenderloin, no matter how it’s cooked (oven, skillet, Instant Pot, grill etc), works fine for this recipe.

WHAT IS THE PERFECT INTERNAL TEMPERATURE FOR PORK? IS IT STILL 160 DEGREES F. AT THE CENTER?

NOOOO!! The USDA says we can now safely cook all pork just until it’s 140-145 degrees F. at the center. Pork cooked to this temperature will have a slight pink tinge to the meat and that is perfect! No more gray, overcooked, funky pork – hallelujah!

To be sure your pork is cooked to that perfect 140-145 degree temperature, you’ll need to remove it from the cooking source (grill, oven, grill pan, etc) when the pork has an internal temperature of 130-135 degrees. Then, tent the pork with foil and let it rest.

During this resting time, the pork will raise 5-10 more degrees in internal temperature, finishing out at that perfect 140-145 degrees F.
