Pork tenderloin is the most tender cut on the pig, a long, thin muscle running along the inside of the backbone. It is extremely lean with very mild flavor, making it well-suited to quick, high-heat cooking such as roasting whole, searing in a pan, or grilling. It benefits from marinades or flavor-forward sauces to compensate for its delicate taste.
