Since there is absolutely nothing going on here for flavor, I can only rate this 2 stars, and even that is merely as a reference for method. The only seasoning is salt and pepper, and not much flavor can be expected from just onion and celery either. Using this recipe as a starting point, I made significant changes and additions which made this a 4-star recipe for sure. I used one pork tenderloin, which I butterflied and flattened as the recipe directs, and then salted and peppered. I sauteed chopped onion, celery and fennel in an olive oil/butter mix about 10 minutes, added fresh minced garlic and fresh thyme, and cooked another minute or so. I used herb-seasoned stuffing cubes rather than the plain bread cubes, and because of the now nicely flavored vegetable mixture, used very little of the stuffing cubes, about 1 cup for the one tenderloin. When mixing the stuffing cubes with the vegetable mixture, I bound it together with some warmed chicken stock, enough to moisten. I stuffed, then tied the roast, and rubbed it with a little olive oil before laying half strips of a good, smokey, thick-sliced bacon over the top. Roasted at 50 minutes, it was perfect, tender and with very nice flavor.

Yum! This was delicious! It wasn't very bright of me to make this for the first time on a busy weekday after work. With all the different stages (make the stuffing, flatten the tenderloins, brown the tenderloins, assemble the tenderloins, bake for an hour) it wasn't a quick meal to prepare . . . but it was deceptively easy, and DANG, but it tasted deluxe! I added chopped mushrooms, a little splash of chicken broth, and some additional herbs. Served this with Baked Whole Cauliflower and Garlic Parmesan Orzo (recipes on this site).

I like the idea of browning the meat first but this recipe is lacking some flavor. I would add a little rosemary, thyme, parsley and most importantly, sage!

I changed this a little. I marinated the pork overnight in olive oil, garlic, and italian seasonings. I could not find kitchen string, so I used skewers to keep it in place while cooking. I made this for company and the presentation was lovely, and it was very tasty. It looks like you worked all day in the kitchen, but it was not that difficult. I was very happy, thank you for a great recipe!

Having never done this before I found it a littel difficult. I added Chicken broth to the stuffing to moisten it. I could not put all the stuffing in the roast so I cooked about half of the stuffing in a casserole dish in the oven because it was too much stuffing for the pork.

I was always nervous about stuffing a tenderloin, but this recipe showed me that it is fairly easy. The roast was juicy, flavorful and there were no leftovers. That's always a good sign.

This was really really good and easy to make. I did cheat and I used an instant stuffing (followed box directions) and added the onion and celery to it. This came out nice and moist.
