Free-Range Pork Tenderloin from Australia (400g)
Choose options
The pork tenderloin is quite small but by far the most tender part of pork. Did you know that there are only two tenderloins per pig? The demand for pork tenderloins is always higher than what small family farmers can supply. That is one of the reasons what they always sell out fast or are unavailable in the first place. The tenderloin of pork is extremely lean and will cook very fast. Best served sliced or as pork medallions (filet mignons). Find the cooking instructions below.
This free-range pork has taken on the superior flavor and tenderness of pork from a bygone era. Free of growth hormones, antibiotics, or any nasties. It has a superior flavor and all-natural tenderness and how pork should taste.

✔ The pigs live outdoors where they can truffle and play.
✔ Sows raise their piglets in individual straw-filled huts and have room to roam, can wallow in mud, and socialize with each other. Absolutely no gestation crates.
✔ Pigs are fed a natural, nutritiously balanced diet free of chemical residues. All feed is free of GMOs.
✔ No antibiotics or growth hormones - ever.

Pork Tenderloin Recipe Instructions
Defrost the tenderloin in the fridge or in cold water. Due to its size, the tenderloin will defrost relatively quickly. Once completely defrosted open the pack and pat dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
Season with sea salt flakes, freshly ground black pepper, garlic powder, and dried thyme. Simple sea salt and black pepper will do great as well.
Add olive oil to the fry pan or skillet. The tenderloin has an uneven thickness, so you need to be careful not to overcook it. Although extremely tender and forgiving - the best taste experience is medium-well. Therefore cook it on low heat and keep turning the tenderloin.
The pork tenderloin is very lean so there won't be any fat oozing out. Once you notice the tenderloin has run dry while cooking, add olive oil to the frying pan. Keep turning.
Once the internal temperature has reached 62 degrees Celsius (145 degrees Fahrenheit) remove the tenderloin from the heat and let it rest for another five minutes. It will continue to cook on the inside.
Slice into thick slices and you'll have pork tenderloin medallions a la 5-star gourmet restaurant. Or cut into thinner slices as seen in our presentation. Use pork-based gravy sauce, whole steamed potatoes, and mixed vegetables on the side.
Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley for taste and presentation. Enjoy the real taste of free-range pork with your family.
