Pork Tenderloin:
The 450-gram pork tenderloin will easily feed 2 people as a main meal with a selection of fresh vegetables & dauphinoise potatoes. When cooking this piece in the oven, bring the internal temperature up to around 145-160°F & keep it wrapped. To prevent the pork tenderloin from drying out, you may wish to add a little water into the dish to help keep it moist. When ready; remove from the oven & let it rest for 10 minutes before unwrapping because it will help the meat relax & soak up the natural juices.
Roast pork tenderloin can be cut in half & served as a 2-piece meal or some people enjoy carving into medallions of pork before serving. The pork fillet is a whole muscle that has not been used for anything strenuous, hence the soft tender nature of the meat. The texture is very fine & is very easy to cut, the fine fibres breakdown very easily during cooking.
We use only the best pork to make our select cuts from because it gives the best results & is a great source of all the vitamins, minerals & protein needed in a healthy diet. The lean nature of the is cut of pork is perfect for those that want tasty food that is healthy. Having no waste from this piece & little shrinkage when cooking, this pork tenderloin is great value for money, & ideal as a family meat cut.
Pork tenderloin is not just for roasting, you can sear this as slices for a hot & fast cook with a good seasoning for a few hours prior to cooking. The piece can be seared whole in the skillet or pan, please remember to spritz (water sprayed intermittently) to prevent drying out, or you can cut this into thin strips around 5 cm long for a delicious stir fry. This piece of pork is ideal for meals under 30 mins.
How we cut & package our meat is very important to us because it will give a better result in the kitchen at home or restaurant. All our preparation of our meat is done in clean, temperature controlled cutting rooms, the meat is produced & packed within a few minutes to make the product as fresh, moist & have the best natural flavour possible.
The pork tenderloins are vacuum sealed into individual clear recyclable pouches because the vacuum process sucks the natural juices into the meat to keep it moist & flavourful & the pouch keeps the shape of the fillet. The speed & efficiency of our process helps prevent the natural bacteria in meat from growing & this gives a much longer shelf life.
By packing them this way makes them easy to freeze & store. The recyclable clear pouches are one way we can reduce our carbon foot print by our online customers recycling responsibly at home.
All our production facilities are BRC Approved & we are always using local herds to support local farmers.
There are many breeds of pigs in the world, each with different characteristics, some large fatty ones, to small very lean types. Our choice of pig is the Pietrain Pig because it is a low cholesterol breed that has fantastic meat to fat ratio that has excellent flavour with guaranteed results in the kitchen.
Having access to a large volume of good grade, perfect sized pork sides to choose from on a daily basis enables us to create the consistent “Restaurant Quality” pork cuts that people have come to expect from the Sherwood brand.
