Rinsing and Rubbing a Lemon/Garlic Pork Tenderloin: Tips for a 1.7lb Cut

[lisa717]

I couldn't find an UNSEASONed pork tenderloin so I bought a 1.7lb lemon/garlic one.....can I rinse it off and put my rub on it and how long for 1.7lber???????This is for us not a show..LOL

Are you microwaving it? If so, just start at 6 minutes & check every 2 minutes after that. It will probably take longer than 10 minutes, but not by too much.

Just leave the seasoning on...it's no biggie...and cook as the other poster described.

Just check the temp. It will probably take longer than 10 min.

I cooked a 1.7 lb and it took 13 minutes. Did you get it from Walmart?

This is an excellent show recipe. I sold 3 bakers at my last show with only 4 guests there!!! I made the BBQ sauce from the sweet and smoky rub and everyone bought at least 1 of those.

I cooked two 1 lb tenderloins and it took 12 minutes. I would also not add more seasoning and enjoy the lemon garlic. I also did it at a show and sold 2 and the crowd was NOT big spenders.

I agree! If not buying they are booking to buy at a discount! Make the salad too - its so quick!

I'm making that recipe at my show this Wednesday. THe dressing sounds really good too. In June I sold 7 Bakers!! 2 to the Hosts and 5 at regular price

My microwave is too small for the covered baker....and I hate the idea of doing a recipe for the first time at a show. Is this one as full-proof and wonderful as it sounds?

Love the idea of selling three of them at one show....or if there's 8 people there, maybe 6?

I'm the same way! This is for sure fool proof. My kids thought I was nuts the 1st time I made this. It was 1 hour before I had to leave for my show and I had to make the recipe at my house because I just couldn't bring myself to make it for the first time at a show. We stood around our island slicing the meat and dipping it in the sauce and each of us kept saying "YUM".
This will sell those bakers. I sold 1 at a show just by telling them about the chicken and pork in the microwave. I didn't even have the baker there!!

I made the southwest pork fajitas and everyone LOVED it! I found it had to cook longer than the recipe called for. Even reaching the temp on the recipe directions(160 deg) it was very rare when I sliced it. I just sliced the rest and microwaved it a few more minutes and it was fine.
