And WTF is up with Pork shoulder??

Pork Shoulder is so expensive because of the popularity of pulled pork and so many people now have smokers. Just like in the 80’s chicken wings use to go into the garbage until Buffalo wings came along and the price of wings has been climbing ever since. On the topic of the price of pork though, most cuts are essentially the same price they were 20 years ago. Tenderloins and Backribs are regularly on sale for $2.99 - $3.99/lb at all the major retailers and boneless loins for $1.99- $2.49/lb. These are the same prices we were paying in 2004. Really don’t know how hog producers are keep ing their operations going.

Pork shoulder you can still get for $3 per pound. You just might have to buy more than you want.

Those pork loins for $2 per pound are the best value in meat right now.

Buy a sous vide and season your pork tenderloin , throw in the water for 4 hrs after vacuum sealing and sear in the cast iron

For 5$ you can feed a family of 4 easily . (If you want to get fancy baste in butter and rosemary in the cast iron for a few more bucks)

The price is insanely low for pork tenderloin for whatever reasons and it is so tender and good

Hm, is it true that pork tenderloin is about as lean as chicken thighs? I generally avoid pork most of the time but maybe I should add sous vide pork tenderloin into the normal meal rotation.

Pork tenderloin seems way leaner than chicken thighs, I would guess they are as lean or leaner than chicken breast.

[Fuzz]

Seven cuts of pork – from tenderloin to a ribeye pork chop – meet the USDA guidelines for lean. In fact, pork tenderloin is just as lean as a skinless chicken breast, and many cuts of pork from the loin are leaner than a skinless chicken thigh.

Pork tenderloin is great, though you really do need to use a thermometer to get the best out of it.

Sometimes are are hard choices to make.

But it's good to know I can add some pork back into regular meals. I still have the bad stuff just not very often.

How do I baste it with bbq sauce, building up layers of thick sugary crispy goodness on the outside, if it's British boiled in a bag?

About 24% of the planet who are Muslim for starters.

I love making schnitzel sandwiches using tenderloin. Get some nice Portuguese rolls, pound out some tenderloin slices, bread and fry, top with provolone, hot sauce and some veggies and it is a quick 10 minute dinner.

Pork isn’t “bad stuff”

Some cuts of pork are exceptionally lean, some are not.

If concerned pick those that are lean.
