This is a very simple recipe, with few ingredients. I loved the freshness the herbs added to this pork, even after freezing

Join the discussionHi! How do you thaw, in the refrigerator? How long before you are going to cook it do you take it out of the freezor?
The best thaw solution is in the refrigerator overnight.
Should the cooking directions be 20 minutes per pound?
Amy, because you brown the outside of the tenderloin well, it doesn’t take long at all in the oven. Just be sure to check it for 140-150 degrees with a meat thermometer, and you should be fine!
So we just finished eating this delicious meal for dinner, with a few twists. I coated the pork tenderloin based off this recipe, but I ended up putting it in a crockpot on high for 5 hours in a bath of apple juice, chicken stock, onions, celery, and dried cranberries! Wow, it’s a keeper!!
Wow, Lara – that sounds delicious! Thank you for sharing!
Lara – did you defrost it first or just stick it in the crockpot frozen?
How would you cook this in the instapot?
I would first of all, cut it into 2 inch thick or less chunks or segments. I would follow the cooking directions similar to this recipe – https://onceamonthmeals.com/recipes/instant-pot-paleo-ginger-pork-tenderloin/ – If using 4 lbs as this recipe calls for (garlic herb crusted pork tenderloin) I would do 50 minutes instead of 30.
