ANSWER: Versatile pork tenderloin is one of the leanest cuts of pork. A 3-ounce portion has 4 grams of fat. One tenderloin ranges from 1 1/4 to 2 pounds. The tenderloins are long with a thick end that tapers to a narrow end.
Whole pork tenderloin is terrific to cook on the grill or roast whole in the oven. You can cut the whole tenderloin into medallions or thin slices and pan sauté them, or cut it into strips to use in stir-fries. To make it easier to cut, first put it in the freezer for about 20 minutes.
