Top pork tenderloin tips!
- If you want your pork tenderloin to be juicy and tender (and never dry and tough), invest in a meat or instant-read thermometer and cook pork tenderloin only to 140-145F internal temperature.
- Allow the pork to rest 10 minutes before slicing. The pork will continue to cook a bit while it rests (adding another 3-5 degrees), so factor that in when deciding when to remove the pork.
- When testing with the thermometer, test the thickest part of the pork tenderloin and be sure to insert the probe just into the centre. If you test too far in, you may pick up the heat from the pan and get a false temperature reading.
