    I had to try this simple recipe...thinking there was no way it could be this easy. Boy was I wrong!! Best Pork tenderloin I have ever made. Going to try the same thing with a beef roast next.

    Ingredients

    • Pork tenderloin
    • salt and pepper to taste
    • any dried or fresh herbs or flavorings you like ( I used salt,pepper,cayenne,smoked salt and dried rosemary...on this one)
    • The seasonings will be on the outside,so you may want to over do it a bit.

    Directions

    1. Preheat your oven to 500 degrees
    2. While the oven is preheating prepare your tenderloin by adding all seasoning's.
    3. Place in a baking dish that leaves room all around the meat. ( I used a glass roasting pan on this one)
    4. Once oven is preheated and tenderloin is ready and in pan, DO NOT COVER ROAST...put your pork in the oven on rack about 1/3 up from the bottom.
    5. Cook roast for 5 1/2 minutes per pound. ( mine was a 4 lb tenderloin...I cooked this for 20 minutes)
    6. DO NOT GO OVER THE MINUTES PER POUND. YOU MUST ONLY COOK YOUR ROAST FOR THE ALLOTTED 5 1/2 MINUTES PER-POUND.
    7. TURN OFF OVEN...DO NOT OPEN OVEN FOR 45 MINS - TO 1 HOUR.
    8. The heat must not be released!!! This is very important.
    9. Remove roast from oven. Cover with foil for at least 15 mins.
    10. The roast will be between 140 and 160 degrees...inside. Right where it should be for health reasons. It is a bit pink which is OK and not harmful. 160 is what USDA considers done in the USA
    11. IF YOU FOLLOW THIS RECIPE 100% YOU WILL BE AMAZED AT HOW PERFECT THIS TENDERLOIN WILL BE. MOIST AND LOVEY SAUCE DRIPPINGS IN BOTTOM OF PAN.
    12. NOTE: Veggies can be added to this roast in the same pan,just make sure they are NOT touching the roast. Spread them out and around roast.

          You really should try this cooking method Shalina...I was very shocked at how wonderful it turned out. I talked my brother into trying this recipe and he bragged all over about how delish it was. LOL
          I just cant believe something so easy works so well.
