so, a while back i picked up a 10lb pork tenderloin super cheap. I divided it into 5 roughly 2lb sections and froze it. I have cooked a couple of them, I sliced them up about an inch and a half thick and grilled them for pork steaks. (or boneless chops if you prefer, haha!) Does anyone have any other idears for these?
 
I would nearly bet we are speaking of Loin here as opposed to a Tenderloin. If you slice a tenderloin like that it would come out as cubes..lol. Have you tried the hot water brine I been trying to talk folks into trying? That was great on those thick "loin steaks" then onto the grill. Not sure they have any higher purpose than that. Less a person wanted to make some kinda extoic New Mexico yuppie green chile thing or somethng. They are too lean to clown around with too much. Let us know how it comes out. Also read on the wrapper whether it be loin or vice versa. For a change up they are also very good to soak in Eyetalian Dressing overnight..or 5 mins with a vacuum marinate bucket. Kraft 7 Seas Viva Eyetalian is best for that deal. Much more flavorful than Wishbone and 99.99% of the other choices.

Ok, must be loin then. Not too familiar with these. What is this hot water brine you speak of? kinda wanted to cook it tonight.
 
Its in the recipe section. No need to bore all these nice folks trying to splains it all over again yet another time. If you cant find it holler back. It takes two hours.
 
Ok, I will, thanks. Too late for tonight, but I have 2 more, so we'll try it next time.
 
Tonight, yuppie chile! by the time it's done I could have done the hot water brine, but I already started.
 
Yuppie chile was good. Thanks verminator and b-dub, for the inspiration!
