How do I cook peppercorn pork tenderloin?

Question

Hi all. I bought 2 logs of pork tenderloin. They are already seasoned but I am not sure how to cook them. What temp? What pan? Thanks for the help.

Answer 1

Sear them on the stove in a sautee pan on high heat just until the outside is golden brown.
Move them, in the same pan, to the oven set to 375, or so. In my opinion, pork tenderloin is best medium rare, but most people prefer medium (don't worry, the disease associated with uncooked pork, trichenosis (sp?), has been completely erradicated). Because the tenderloin is the most high-quality and tender cut from a pig, it should still be pink in the middle. Beyond that point, it just gets dryer and tougher. So you should take the pork out when the internal temp is 145, probably about 20-30 minutes. Let it rest for 5-10 minutes, and the temp will rise to 150, which is Medium. Delicious!

Peppercorn Pork Tenderloin

Answer 3

Cook it on the grill over medium heat for probably 30 mins
More than likely it will have 3 sides kinda... cook it for 10 mins on each side the cut it in half... check it's color with a light.
If it's not good and white all the way through give it another 5 mins then check again. Cut it in 3/4" thick pieces. Enjoy!
