I know this is like 10 years old now, but from a Cordon blue chefs point of view this is by far my favorite. Bless you where ever you are now in 2022

[@jsmith3765]

Just did up a tenderloin and followed these instructions on a cast iron grill pan. 2 minutes per side, 375 for 20 minutes. Best pork tenderloin I've ever made.

[@dr.harrydissinger6334]

Followed Susan's recipe for Cooking Pork Tenderloin today. Susan is a first-rate teaching chef. I say this because I'm a bit of a novice in the kitchen, and was able to follow her instructions easily, and produced a wonderful meal that was enjoyed by all my guests. Molto bene, Susan!

[@Arkenva]

The last time I made pork tenderloin was probably 2014, via this video. It was perfection every time I followed this advice. Going to make it again for Father’s Day tomorrow!!

[@whoseeswho]

I love your tips and advise throughout. that helps a lot!

[@michael476b]

I found a pork loin in the freezer. I checked out a lot of videos on how to cook it. Yours is definitely a winner. It came out perfect. What a surprise.

[@CarlosFlores-gm7dv]

Great video! I've gained 30pounds since I started watching KZbin cooking videos. Can't stop now! Good job, lady.

[@FunnyGmaw]

It has been years since I've cooked and served pork tenderloin, because It did not turn out very well, so I thought I'd try one again. I bought a plump 1.80 pork tenderloin that was pre-seasoned with garlic and lemon. Then I searched for "How to cook a pork tenderloin" I choose your video to watch and I must say; I cooked that baby like a pro! lol. It was so simple and amazingly fast. Now for the best part; My tenderloin (your instructions) was beautifully colored, heavenly delicious and so tender that every bite literally melted in our mouth! Thank you so much Susan, Chef Susan Odell! :)

[@miladyazdankhah7227]

Thank you so much, Susan ! Keep up the good job!

[@robertsidley1077]

amazingly helpful, tryed it seconds after watchingthe video and it worked perfectly, my new favorite thats forsure

[@Superseanbarry]

Well done! I have refined my pork T loin but your presentation made me better! I am now subscribed. I serve PT at parties and I leave the skinny end alone. That way I can serve on demand from the done part to the big part. You rock!

[@14Marathons]

Great video. Best tip was putting protection over the skillet handle after removing from oven...I bought those covers immediately after learning the hard way.....since we use the skillet a lot more frequently on the stove top, we are not as used to using it in the oven and it's easy to forget that the handle is HOT!!! Thanks again for the video...

[@tdfsu1]

I went out to the freezer this morning to grab some pork chops for supper and saw a tenderloin sitting just begging to be cooked. Decided to try the sear and roast version you posted. SCORE! Dusted it with some kosher salt and cracked black pepper, seared it in a cast iron skillet and roasted it on 350 for 15 minutes (it was only 13 oz). Turned out perfect and was super simple. Thanks for posting this!

[@lronbutters5688]

Omg I NEED this in my life! It’s a great skill!

[@icegirl63]

It was absolutely delicious!! Thanks for the helpful videos!!

[@Stevelemontrudy]

It turned out perfect. Thank you.

Appreciate all the detailed instructions. You make it look so easy!

[@janarosem]

Excellent video, thank you! :-)

[@poohzerker8551]

I just found this today, but I will have a delicious pork tenderloin tomorrow. Corona-Chan has been the catalyst to learn how to cook lol. God Speed Ms. O'dell

[@JULOC05]

I like the detailed explanation.

[@archer3488]

Watched 3 videos, the subtle and specific tips she gave here shows how much more experience she has with the Pot ! To bad my tenderloin is already in the oven 😭

[@Robber7]

Thanks a lot! Haven't cooked it yet, but I will try it tomorrow to serve my girlfriend some nice pork. Very clear and good quality video! Thanks!

[@michealbeers777]

Thanks for the POST......150 degrees works for me too, because when I reheat it when I take some for lunch, it's still tender!

[@magnusjohn81]

Very useful video, thanks. About to try my first tenderloin.

[@Astat18]

nice recipe i did this today and was deicious, cheers.

[@cskibb67]

Best video Ive seen cooking P.T.L.!

[@susanh.o.g4343]

it was easy and very delicious.

[@cryptoholic7322]

Tat's pretty much of a perfection. Cheap cut of meat elevated to an enormous heights

[@ttothep1]

I smoke a lot of pot. My question is . . . I forgot. Looks awesome!

[@chicagomike]

Thank you. Very nice.

[@tanyahartley7782]

THIS WAS PROBABLY THE MOST DETAILED COOKING VIDEO I HWVE HAVE EVER WATCHED. YOU GOT ME TO SUBSCRIBE. THANK YOU MAM GOOD JOB🤗

[@Pantalapremiumtoppings]

You're welcome! So happy it was helpful.

[@marvinmcmiller6238]

truly, great flavor comes from...... smoked pork tenderloin. mmmmm!!!

[@tomkelly2024]

Came out great! I'll have you over next time :-)

[@larryrothgeb6268]

thank you

[@allrise3056]

You’re wonderful.

[@robd5326]

i just made this...Best pork I've ever had.So juicy

[@TiberiusStorm]

Thank you! I didn't want to marinade my pork tenderloin and your video was great!

[@meanttobehere12]

Thanks. I always worried about the diseases of beef and pork. I like this with 20 minutes at 375. Roasting larger pork is 350.

[@bakenfat]

Nice. Subscribed.

[@Lokismom11]

Thank youuuu :)

[@Kimberly-yt6nn]

Browning the tenderloin and then putting it in the oven is my absolute favorite way to cook it. Comes up tender and juicy every time. I use to just cook it all the way in the over but the tenderloin doesn't come out as good. The one thing I did learn here is to let my pan get warm and then add the olive oil. I've always heated both at the same time so I'll try that the next time I cook it which for my family it's a favorite so we usually have it once a week.

[@creativegirl9710]

Is that an All-Clad and what size? I need one of those. Thanks. FYI: I use my saved bacon grease instead of oils.

[@staceykersting705]

I get these 4 lb pork roasts in my food commodity box. There's no marbling at all. I even tried wrapping in bacon...after first few slices, it was still dry as sand. I asked the butcher. He just said, "good luck!' LOL never met a food before that I just could not eat.

[@martha3989]

Thankssss. I just have a question because I bought one pork tenderloin teriyaki seasoned by mistake my question is, can I still cook it like you do in the video? Use salt and pepper, sealing it in the pan then put in the oven. Thank you

[@FabulosayFit]

looks delicious!

[@chaimaryan2366]

sorry to be so off topic but does someone know of a method to get back into an instagram account? I was stupid forgot the account password. I appreciate any help you can offer me.

[@krewdaniel1161]

@Chaim Aryan Instablaster :)

[@chaimaryan2366]

@Krew Daniel i really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and Im in the hacking process now. I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.

[@chaimaryan2366]

@Krew Daniel It worked and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy! Thank you so much, you saved my account :D

[@krewdaniel1161]

@Chaim Aryan you are welcome :D

[@philipwebb960]

I love that she handles the raw meat and then immediately uses the scissors, touches the string she doesn't use, and dips her hand into the salt.

[@CitizenKate]

This was published 8 years ago, and FDA recommendations for internal cooking temperatures for pork have been updated since then. They now recommend that we can cook our pork to an internal temperature of 145 deg. F, which is a nice medium rare. Bon Appetite!

[@jeroldcummings3670]

Yes, and thats precisely what is....a RECOMMENDATION. Not everyone wants their meat only cooked to medium rare. The FDA doesn't know everything. Personal preference is JUST THAT....

[@CitizenKate]

@@jeroldcummings3670 Do what you want. I just meant to point out that the considerations have changed due to improvements in meat processing.

[@surrenderbend6828]

Do you wash the packing before you put it on the cutting board? Goodness knows how many people have touched that in the store

[@livininaz523]

Can you use a cast iron pan for this recipe?

[@Mags131]

Loved your video. Thank you! USDA no longer recommends cooking to internal temp of 160 degrees but rather 145 up to 160, because you are correct, it is too dry at 160 degrees.

[@mikesartorii234]

Was about to comment the same but saw your comment! Yes, I would pull at around 140 ish and let it rest 10+ minutes.

[@stevemazz3121]

I shoot for a temperature of 135 degrees when removed from the oven... after letting it sit 20 to 30 minutes it rises to a delicious and moist 142 to 148..... serve with pan gravy, cauliflower puree, and roasted Brussel sprouts.

[@glhswccc]

Great, informative, video Chef Susan! I am very much enjoying your videos and look forward to your submissions. Are you thinking of throwing in a few gluten-free recipes? I know a lot of them, like this one, are, but rice pasta is a pain and I'd like your input on how to make a gluten-free pasta more enjoyable. Thanks again!

[@Superseanbarry]

Good job! USDA now states 145 degree for pork :D

[@francisek8356]

My pork tenderloin is 2.5 lbs at 375 what would you suggest for bake time?

[@bikermama1959]

Hi Susan, I'm having 5 people over for dinner here pretty soon & my sister wants pork roast. I want the juiciest & most tender roast I can get! What would you suggest? The pork tenderloin? I'd like to buy say 6 of them, in case anyone wants 2nd's.. If I'm cooking them all together in a lrg. pan, how long should I cook them for? Or if not the pork tenderloin, what would you recommend? Do you have a video on how to make pork gravy? Help! lol

[@freshhh_prince]

So what would you recommend putting the meat on if I don't have a oven safe skillet??

[@zoltank.9757]

I would put it on a cookie sheet or on the rack.

[@fseuss]

5:20 is so crucial!

[@CharleneSullivan-od1ks]

Do you cover poker loin

[@arkmusic7580]

my dad and I ate two pork tenderloins by ourselves.... yall need to learn how to eat.

[@AndyShepard]

Nice! Now I won't look like some square who doesn't know how to cook! Thanksgiving is saved!

[@salinferno]

Why do the meat cutters/butchers leave the sinew on if we're to cut it off anyway?

[@rexguy7823]

Why would you put a frying pan that's just came out the oven straight onto the bench top without putting something underneath it?

[@robertrjsaa]

more rare for me thanks

[@mistergrendel32]

I wouldn’t put that hot pan on the nice counter top. Put it on the range or cutting board. 🤔🤓

[@chefsvision6351]

Delicious !!! I have as well a pork tenderloin recipe, if you want to check it out

[@crazy849661]

2-3 pieces per person........ DONT TELL ME HOW TO EAT, Susan...... but i will try your method :)

[@Mixwell1983]

How to circumcise a horse cock. J/K.. I'm goin to slam mine in a screaming hot cast iron for char and finish in the oven until 135-140 and let it carry to maybe 145. The only difference with heating a pan and adding oil is I either oil the meat and let the pan get hot or I add oil to the pan until I see whisps of smoke starting. I also like the Alton B method where as she had it 9-3 in the pan to turn it to 12-6 once your turn it (if you're looking at a clock) since those parts are hotter and keep alternating so as to not have cold spots. For those that cook large hunks of meat I'd highly suggest a meat probe thermometer !! Takes the time and guess work out of the process.

[@johnonorgan]

loud music no

[@possaroo1454]

Susan is the total package. Good cook and a real looker, with a cute set of jugs.

[@hobodecuisine504]

how she put the fucking pan right on thecounter top like that and its 145 degrees

[@EarMode]

I've ruined two pork tenderloins in a crock pot after following recipes that involve onion soup mix and red wine; never again! I'll give your method a try, Susan.

[@spacemanspiffy6596]

if you score the backside you shouldn't need to tie the end.

[@eliasbartos5313]

you sound like you own culinary college or something

[@KingTrunkzdbz]

Looks tough as she's cutting it.

[@billybobkingston5604]

Wish America was metric

[@garthcarrier]

I do not want to speak negative. but she put a hot pan out of the oven on to the counter. but she did a good job.

[@anthonyellsmore4532]

That looked dry and tough

[@MrThebig125]

I think you know how to use KZbin or this wasn't a KZbin video If this was meant to be KZbin video you lies your card the description and links if you reference video put up in a card

[@christinasavage9613]

I did what she said not to do... touch the hot handle......

[@Pantalapremiumtoppings]

+Christina Savage Ouch! I've been there and can sympathize!

[@rokobuda1]

I always put a dry rag on the handle to remind everybody, including myself, that the handle is hot.

[@thomaskahn4957]

Searing was too long. It was dry.

[@Thompsett]

Why don't you wash meat? I find it very concerning ...

[@rzcghtl2587]

Didn't even wash the meat after unwrapping.👎

[@pathendricks7007]

You forgot to wash your meat before preparing. 🤦🏻‍♀️ ijs.

[@contrel08]

Pat Hendricks you don't "wash" meat that has been shrink wrapped. It doesn't do anything and no chef does that anyways.

[@TheNastyPS]

wash the meat? are you on drugs?

[@navycottoncandi]

You did not wash your meat

[@MrCherubhair1]

You don't need to.

[@nicbing2598]
