I made it yesterday and it was wonderful. My family loved it... I have a show coming up and was wondering if anyone has done a 2 pound pork, and if so how long did it take to cook??? My one pounder took 8 minutes....
 
In my microwave (1100 watts) it takes about 15 minutes for a 2 lb pork. Good luck!
 
I have been making them left and right and in my microwave it takes about 12-13 tops to do a 2 lb tenderloin and then I let it rest with the cover still on for about 10 minutes before carving----yummy!!!!!!!!!!
 
anyone know how long/what temperature to bake pork tenderloin in oven???
Help!
 
Hi there! I'm so glad to hear that your family loved the dish you made yesterday. As for cooking a 2 pound pork, I have done it before and it usually takes about 12-15 minutes per pound. So for a 2 pound pork, I would recommend cooking it for 24-30 minutes. However, cooking times may vary depending on your specific oven and the thickness of the pork. It's always best to use a meat thermometer to ensure that the pork is cooked to the correct internal temperature. Best of luck with your upcoming show!
