Burgundy Pork Tenderloin
Okay, I give this a 4 1/2! On Saturday, made the Daria's slow cooker beef stroganoff from this site (which is outstanding), for my son and his girlfriend -- absolutely NO leftovers for me and my daughter!! So I pulled out a pork tenderloin and let it thaw for Sunday's meal. I was somewhat hesitant to make this because of the mixed reviews but it seemed like such an easy, elegant "Sunday" meal and I had all the ingredients! Boy am I glad I made it! It smelled delicious when cooking! I followed the recipe but used a bit more Lawry's seasoned salt for the pork and more pepper. The wine did not evaporate completely and I had plenty of liquid to make the gravy. The cooking times were right on the money (the pork does continue to "cook" while resting on a plate while you make the gravy). I used a whole packet of brown gravy mix as written and just some flour to thicken the gravy to our liking. The pork was so tender and juicy, the celery added a wonderful flavor and crispiness to each bite and the gravy, while I could see it would be salty for some tastes -- was excellent! This is a keeper and I will make again. Even my fussy 11-year daughter liked it (and she really dislikes all meat). Okay I made it more kid friendly by serving it with the ever popular mac and cheese -- but even that went well with this meal. Thank you, Kathleen, I will also make this for our family gatherings!
