Hoosier Tenderloin image

I love pork tenderloin sandwiches and haven't been able to find a good one since I moved away from MO. I found this recipe in a book by Jane and Michael Stern, who ate at Nicks Kitchen in Huntington, Indiana. I don't know whether this recipe is the Sterns' or the restaurant. Either way, it sounds like a keeper! Time allowed doesn't include the 12-16 hours of soaking.

I followed the recipe exactly and my tenderloins turned out raw in the middle. Very disappointed.

These tenderloins were a bit dry. I think I overcooked them.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra seasonings to the breading and they turned out much better.

The breading on these tenderloins was a little too thick for my taste, but the pork was cooked perfectly.
