Tavern Tenderloin
« Reply #-1 on: March 30, 2013, 02:21:57 PM »
I was prepping some pork loin into some roasts and chops and decided to do a couple of good old Indiana Tavern Tenderloins. I was raised on this treat.



I cut a couple of 3/4 pound slices off the whole loin and then pounded them out and they were ready to be breaded.

I then rolled them around in some flour and then into my egg wash. Next step was to roll them again in some bread crumbs. Next step was to deep fry them in a large skillet in very hot lard for about 2-3 minutes.



Looking good just out of the hot skillet.



Loaded one big tenderloin up on a large bun half. I spread some mayo on the other bun half and added my lettuce, tomato, and onion.



Oh my...that is some good stuff. I will be well lubricated today!

Oh - THAT is a Mid-Western favorite right there Dave...and if the rest of the country finds out just how good that is - you are gonna create a shortage of pork t'loins! ;D

Dave, Great sandwich - used to love those in Iowa in the Amana Colonies (they think they invented them  ) And, they have to hang out past the bun! Regardless of what they are called or where they come from, those are good eats! Thanks!

I remember the breaded pork loin sandwiches from a truck stop in Ames, iowa while attending school there.  We would head to the truck stop after "studying" rather late.  Always a great treat late in the evening/early in the morning.  Whenewver I get out that way I start looking for them.

Here's another one for me to add to my list!  Thanks for posting.

What David said. Iowa doesn't have much, so we give them bragging rights on this one ;)

Haven't seen those Down South but it looks delicious. I have made a country fried steak sandwich, but haven't done it with pork.
