From the National Pork Board; These bun-busting tenderloins are supposed to hang out from the bun by at least an inch (sometimes more), creating a two-fisted dining experience. Nicholas Freinstein, of Huntington, Indiana, is credited with creating "the tenderloin".

I substituted chicken for the pork tenderloin and it turned out great! The chicken was moist and flavorful, and the breading was crispy and well-seasoned. The sauce was also very good.
