Duroc pork tenderloin medalians

[Retired Spook]

Sorry, no photos as I was experimenting and did not know what to expect.

I bought a Duroc pork tenderloin, sliced it into medallions, gave them some kosher salt, fresh ground pepper, granulated garlic and granulated onion, and sauteed them in some BaconUp, and I have not tasted pork that good since I last ate pork at my grandmother's house, many, many years ago.

It actually tasted like pork, not cardboard.

That stuff is the real deal - tastes like pork is supposed to taste. Top shelf!

A picture-less post is grounds for a revocation of one OTBS membership.

Growing up pork had to be cooked to at least 160* to be safe. Most of what I remember was on the dryer side.

I've heard good things about Duroc, but have yet to try it.

That line was only funny the first time someone used it, in another thread, only a couple days ago.

Be more creative!

I have never eaten dry, overcooked pork, and I have no plans to, but I have heard that there are people who have.

My point was that Duroc actually tastes like the wonderfully delicious pork that my grandmother used to prepare, back in the day, and nothing like the flavorless garbage that has had all the flavor engineered/bred out of it, that is typically available in grocery stores, today.

WELL worth the moderate added cost, in my not so humble opinion.

Duroc pork is very good. Love it every time I have it.

I was very happily surprised by how good it is!

I am so very sorry your highness, and please accept my humble apologies for unknowingly regurgitating a prior response that was not up to your almighty standards.

It must be nice living in your world. All alone sitting at the top of the heap. Looking down at all us plebs.

Oh yeah RS totally agree as I ordered a Duroc locally for our last comp and the taste is noticeably better! Now our local Food Lion is trying to keep butts and tenderloin in stock.
Labeled as "prime" along with "Duroc" on the packaging. Well worth the Xtra costs!

I've gotten some duroc chops out of the "butcher case" at our local Kroger. And yes you can tell the difference. And well worth the difference in price!

I actually took out a pork tenderloin, not Duroc, to cook tonight, but life kinda got in the way. What do they say about great minds? One out of the two ain't bad, I guess...

where did that one come from sir? I always thought that we got along pretty good? I guess I missed something, somewhere.

I guess I should apologize for taking offense when someone walks into a thread I started about Italian meatballs and sauce and tells me that my Italian grandmother doesn't know shit because his Irish grandmother called it gravy, not sauce, but I am sorry, I am not about to apologize for that - ever - nor will I apologize for dragging a thread back on the topic of Duroc pork and not how dry and overcooked someone else cooks their pork, especially after they have insulted my grandmother and my heritage.

With respect, gentlemen, if you do not like my posts, no one is forcing you to read them. You can use the ignore feature and I will probably never even notice.
