Pork Tenderloin can be prepared either by grill or pan-roasting.

To start off you can either marinate, brine, glaze, or dry rub the meat if you prefer.

Marinades can be garlic and olive oil, teriyaki, or other ingredients.  Marinate it in a sealable bag overnight. 

Brining - enhances the juiciness of the meat.  Soak the meat in a saltwater mixture and refrigerating.

Glaze - You can glaze with almost anything syrupy AFTER you've seared the meat and BEFORE you cook it.

Dry Rub - Use a variety of ground herbs and spices, parsley, basil, or cilantro and apply it to the meat anytime before cooking even up to hours before or right before cooking.

Grilling - Always cook over indirect heat and it usually takes 20-30 minutes over medium-high heat.  Flip every 4 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 135-140 degrees Fahrenheit.  Let the tenderloin cool before serving.

Pan-Roasting - Preheat oven to 425 and coat an ovenproof skillet with oil.  Sear the meat over medium-high heat until brown on all sides.  Roast meat for 15-20 minutes until internal temp reaches 145 F.  Let cool before serving.

Many thanks to my friend Betty Crocker for this guide.

In short - they generally taste the same unless the pasture the grass-fed cows live on is poorly managed.

Grass fed is the premium product though. You want to make it sound better to make the sale. More natural, flavorful, etc.

And, for the record, I am not opposed to alcohol.  I'm just opposed to excessive drinking and getting drunk.  I'm also opposed to people burning their family's paycheck on beer instead of (junk) food or (premium cable/porn) bills.  I, myself, like to enjoy a glass of wine every now and then.  I haven't had any since July 2013 because I am of the belief that if I have a drink then I cannot drive the rest of the day and since I am often by myself, then I cannot indulge in a drink.  I have no problem with any of my friends having controlled drinks just so long as they don't get drunk and embarrass themselves or their family.  That said, I never condemn anybody if they do get drunk nor do I call them out, because I do things that are just as bad.

Fixed that for you.

One wonders how many days we'll hear this before it's RIP time.  Define "snowed in" please.

We had 2-3" of snow plus a layer of ice (freezing drizzle).  There were reports of 15 wrecks every hour across the OKC Metro both Friday and Saturday.  The main roads never got extremely bad, but the side roads were a complete mess.  The City basically shut down completely Friday and especially over the weekend.  The roads improved greatly yesterday afternoon and will be even better today, so I'm going to head back home to Tulsa shortly after Noon today.

I'm going to follow J-Mann's advice here and leave my money in my wallet.  I don't want to throw money away by ruining a cut of meat.

I must make a confession...  I stayed up until 0100 this morning watching the Atlanta NASCAR race that I had recorded.  Way past my bedtime.  The DVR cut off with 17 laps to go just after the massive wreck that forced a red flag with 20 laps to go.  I am already planning on watching the Las Vegas race next Sunday at 1430 and may put that on record when I get home this evening.  I may be turning into a NASCAR fan.  Favorite driver?  Dale, Jr.

Bushie, how many one way miles to work is this place?   Since  your state almost closes down at the sight of a snowflake.

15


You better pray there's no late season snow or it's RIP

This being Oklahoma, we should safely get into Spring in the next couple of weeks.  It is extremely rare for us to get snow in April, and if it does it never sticks and it's always above freezing.  More likely, we get tornadoes in late March and April.  When I start work we will be in severe weather season.  Remember, Oklahoma is the heart of tornado alley.

RIP job

Amen.  Everyone is trying to make ODF into a sommelier so he can keep his job......I'm horribly disappointed in my friends here.  He's going to lose it:

1) Because of physical limitations, or

2) Absenteeism.

If he knows how to cook a spencer steak so it doesn't taste like shoe leather, or that you need to cook dry aged steaks 1/3 less time than wet aged, who fucking cares.

So, everyone who is confident I can keep this job are idiots?

You need not be so pessimistic and not speak in absolutes there.  Of course I can keep this job.  Anybody who is not critical just to be critical can see that.

I thought you were happy I got this job?  Now, you're saying I'm a gonner?  Stay classy.

You're right, you don't need to try cooking cuts of meat to prepare for your job.

This is the same logic seniors use for why they won't touch a computer. They might break it Roll Eyes Short of severely burning it, or physically putting in a toilet or garbage can, there's no way to ruin a pork loin. And, unlike beef tenderloin, it's a very affordable cut of meat. Less than $5/pound, which means it would be cheaper than going to Braum's. And even beyond having (and keeping) a job, you need to learn at least the basics of cooking to be a functioning adult with a BMI that doesn't qualify for morbid obesity. This extreme refusal to stick even a toe outside of your comfort zone and try something a little bit new (and you eat pork all the time; I'm not trying to get you to try some exotic cuisine) is 100% why you are in such a bad position in life in the first place. Get up off your Inks, turn the TV off, and do something productive. Congrats on getting the grocery job. I'm sure there are many other things you can do with a whole month off that are also worth of praise.

It's basically impossible to ruin a cut of meat anyway. It's not like we're telling you to make a souffle or something. Worst case scenario you overcook it and it's a little bit tough. It'll still be better than 90% of the over-priced garbage you routinely stuff down your throat. A 35-year-old man being afraid to cook a simple cut of meat for himself is pathetic.

Yes, but perhaps not by choice (after a family meeting), but whatever, he must focus on the physical toils he'll need to keep this job.  This nonsense over the last few pages is mind boggling.  God I sound like Memphis.

He has and it's great to see. Seriously. But he needs to keep on doing it. He's in this hole so deep that he can't stop climbing now.

All he needs to do now is retain this information. I keep forgetting he lacks even the basic cooking skills. Learning this stuff will be a major undertaking!

I made it back home to Tulsa about an hour ago.  It looks like my background check came back clean.  I got a packet in the mail with my credit and background check report and it was all clean.  So now, I wait on an official start date and hours.

Not sure if I will have dinner.  I am feeling nauseous right now.

I will weigh in again in the morning.
