Are you kidding. Pork tenderloin is a very versatile cut of meat. Like
most pork cuts, it does need a fair amount of salt. We buy them
frequently and cook them different ways. My wife butterflies them and
hammers them out, stuffs and bakes them. I sometimes cut them into
medallions, fry them and them make a creamy sauce. I sometimes French
them, dip them in egg and bread crumbs and fry them. I also like to
butterfly them and marinate them in a Greek style marinade and then do
them on the gas grill.
