Saw an astounding price today at my local Woodman's-pork tenderloin at
$1.09/#. Unfortunately they were OOS but was told more would be
available over the weekend.

Anybody seen any big breaks in beef prices.

Which city was this Woodmans in? I'll be near the one on Rockford Il.
later today. Looks like I need to stop in.

Not as good as the deal you posted about.

This Woodman's is located at Hwy 50 and I94 near Kenosha WI. They
were OOS when I was in there a couple of days ago-today the case was
filled again. These are pieces of pork tenderloin in a heavy shrink
wrap. The pieces look to be of random length tenderloin-from 3 to 5"
long which will be just fine for my pork tenderloin chili.

Got a whole pork tenderloin today-1.95/#-sometimes it is 1.79. Am
going to stuff it tomorrow with proschuito, Parmaigno, Gorganzola
cheese, pine nuts and fresh spinch leaves and outside covered with
paprika, marjoram, pepper and basil. First attempt at stuffed PT.

I did a couple of tenderloins a few days ago. They came two to a pack
and like you said, they were only about 1.5" to 2" in diameter. I
butterflied them and then pounded them out flat so they ended up
about 10" long and 5" wide. Then I rolled them up with prosciutto and
provolone. I grilled them over a pretty hot fire and they were done
in just about twenty minutes. After resting in foil for quite awhile
I recovered considerable fat and au jus from the rap and made a butter wine
sauce with it. Rage85 did something similar but he did it with a whole
pork loin.
