PORK TENDERLOIN SANDWICH



Pork Tenderloin Sandwich image

A classic sandwich in the Midwest, particularly popular in Iowa and Indiana, but there are regional variations throughout the entire United STates. I've always thought of this as a German schnitzel on a sandwich. It's crispy and crunchy... tender deliciousness!

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 (1 pound) pork tenderloin
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 large egg
½ cup buttermilk
1 cup panko bread crumbs
½ cup olive oil
4 medium soft rolls
4 tablespoons mayonnaise
4 leaves lettuce
12 slices dill pickle

Steps:

  • Trim pork tenderloin of any fat and silver skin, and cut into 4 equal pieces. Place each piece between 2 sheets of plastic wrap or in a resealable plastic bag. Pound the cutlets using a meat mallet to 1/4-inch thickness, flattening each piece.
  • Combine flour, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and pepper in a shallow dish. Whisk together buttermilk and egg in a second dish. Add panko breadcrumbs to a third dish.
  • Dry cutlets with paper towels, and dredge each in the flour mixture on both sides, shaking off any excess. Next dredge tenderloins in the egg-buttermilk mixture, shaking off the excess. Finally, turn cutlets in the bread crumb mixture, pressing down until completely coated. Transfer to a plate and let dry for at least 5 minutes.
  • Heat oil over medium heat in a 12-inch skillet to between 350 to 375 degrees F (175 to 190 degrees C). Place a couple of breaded cutlets in the skillet, making sure not to crowd, and fry on each side for about 3 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally until cutlets are deep golden brown and crisp. Transfer the cutlets to a wire rack to drain any excess oil. Repeat the procedure with the remaining cutlets.
  • Spread each roll with mayonnaise then add lettuce, pickle slices, and cutlets.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1 1/2- to 2-pound pork tenderloin
2 cups buttermilk
3 tablespoons barbecue rub
4 cups peanut oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 cup all-purpose flour
4 large eggs, lightly beaten
3 cups garlic croutons, crushed
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup apricot- or mango-habanero sauce
Pinch of granulated garlic
Kosher salt
4 large brioche buns, split, toasted and buttered
Spicy pickle slices and shredded iceberg lettuce, for topping

Steps:

  • Make the pork: Cut the tenderloin into quarters; using a meat mallet, pound each piece until it is 1/4 inch thick and about 6 inches wide. Mix the buttermilk and barbecue rub in a baking dish, add the pork, cover and let marinate overnight or up to 2 days.
  • In a large deep saucepan, heat the peanut oil over medium heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F. Take the pork out of the marinade and season with salt and pepper.
  • Make a three-stage breading station with the flour, eggs and crouton crumbs in separate shallow bowls. Place the pork pieces first in the flour, turning to coat; shake off the excess. Dip the pork in the beaten egg and let the excess drip off, then dredge in the crouton crumbs, pressing until total coverage is achieved.
  • Fry the pork in batches until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Let drain on a paper towel?lined baking sheet. Set aside.
  • Make the aioli: Mix the mayonnaise, habanero sauce and granulated garlic in a small bowl. Season with salt.
  • Build the sandwiches: Place the crispy pork on the toasted buns with some pickle slices, shredded lettuce and then a nice schmear of the aioli. Serve with extra aioli on the side.

PORK LOIN SANDWICH MEAT



Pork Loin Sandwich Meat image

I love pork loin. I love sandwiches. I will occasionally roast some pork loin for use in sandwiches during the week. This recipe has a bit of savory, a bit of sweet, and a whole lot of flavor!

Provided by David J Rust

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 7h10m

Yield 12 servings of sandwich meat, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 1/4 lbs pork loin
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 cup water
4 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons whole grain mustard
1 ounce garlic (minced)
1 teaspoon salt
black pepper, 20 grinds
6 ounces tomatoes (diced, about 1 medium tomato)

Steps:

  • Heat your oven to 225 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • On a large sheet of aluminum foil, shiny side up, place the pork loin. Rub it with the canola oil and crimp the sides to make a bowl all around it making certain to leave enough foil to close over the roast.
  • Pour the water into the aluminum foil pouch.
  • Rub the honey and mustard over the top of the pork. Add the minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
  • Pour the diced tomatoes over the top.
  • Seal the aluminum foil pouch around the roast and place it on a roasting sheet or in a pan to catch any juices that might escape. Place it in the oven and roast it for 6 hours.
  • Remove the pork from the foil pouch, saving the juices and tomato bits in another dish, and cool the meat to room temperature. NOTE: The finished pork will not have much color as it was not seared or browned before the long, slow cooking process.
  • In a skillet, cook the juices and tomatoes over a medium heat until reduced to a glaze. Pour this glaze over the pork roast and place in the refrigerator.
  • Shred or slice the pork into very small pieces for use on sandwiches, in omelets, or other applications.

PORK LOIN SANDWICH



Pork Loin Sandwich image

Provided by Jeff Mauro, host of Sandwich King

Categories     main-dish

Time 7h10m

Yield 4 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 17

3/4 cup kosher salt
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons whole black peppercorns
3 lemons, halved
One 2 1/2- to 3-pound boneless pork loin, tied with butcher twine
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3 yellow onions, sliced 1/3-inch thick
Butter, for toasting
4 pretzel hot dog buns, split
1/4 cup yellow mustard, plus more for spreading
Pickled Fresno Peppers, recipe follows
3/4 cup white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 bay leaf
1 clove garlic, crushed
4 ounces Fresno peppers, sliced 1/4-inch thick

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, dissolve the salt and sugar in 8 cups of cold water. Add the black peppercorns and squeeze in 2 of the halved lemons. Submerge the pork in the brine for 6 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Remove the pork from the brine and dry off. Heat a large oven-safe skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high heat. Add the oil and sear each side of the loin until golden, about 8 minutes total -- keep turning until it's golden all over. Add the sliced onions to the pan alongside the pork, and stir around to coat the onions in fat. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast the pork until it reaches an internal temperature of 140 to 145 degrees F, about 30 minutes. For even cooking, be sure to stir the onions once or twice during roasting.
  • For the sandwich build: Butter the pretzel bun halves and griddle them until golden brown. With a sharp knife, slice the loin into thin shavings. Spread some mustard on the bottom half of each bun, then top with some sliced pork. Sprinkle the pork with a little salt and squeeze the remaining lemon halves over the top. Top with the roasted onions and some Pickled Fresno Peppers. Eat while standing.
  • Bring the vinegar, 1/4 cup water, the sugar, salt, bay leaf and garlic to a boil in a small saucepan and simmer for 5 minutes. Pour the hot liquid over the peppers in a bowl or container. Cool to room temperature and refrigerate.

YOU'RE THE BEST COLD CUT AROUND



You're the Best Cold Cut Around image

You run the risk of overcooking pork loin when you sear it in a skillet because it's prone to drying out. This sous vide method completely eliminates that worry since it cooks it in a low-and-slow, moisture-sealed environment. The end result is pork that's juicy and tender that you can use as cold cuts for sandwiches all week long.

Categories     Pork     Oregano     Fennel     Paprika     Coriander     Cardamom     Dairy Free     Peanut Free     Sandwich     Lunch

Yield Makes about 2 lb. cold cuts

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 Tbsp. light brown sugar
1 Tbsp. kosher salt
1 Tbsp. onion powder
2 tsp. dried oregano
2 tsp. fennel seeds
1 tsp. smoked paprika
1 tsp. ground coriander
1/4 tsp. ground cardamom
2 lb. boneless pork loin
Special Equipment
A sous vide machine; a 1-gallon vacuum-sealable or resealable plastic bag

Steps:

  • Clip (or stand) sous vide machine to a tall large pot. Fill pot with warm water to height according to manufacturer's instructions (keep in mind that water will rise when pork is added).
  • Mix brown sugar, salt, onion powder, oregano, fennel, paprika, coriander, and cardamom in a small bowl to combine. Rub all over pork. Place pork in bag, along with any stray spices from bowl.
  • Vacuum-seal or partially close resealable bag, getting as much air out as possible to keep bag from floating, and place in water bath. If using a resealable plastic bag, push down into water until only the open edge of bag is exposed (this will push more air out of the bag), then seal.
  • Turn on machine and heat water to 140°F. Cook pork 8 hours, giving you just enough time to watch two episodes of This Is Us, read a couple chapters of your book, floss, brush, sleep, get up, get dressed, brush your teeth, and eat a bowl of cereal.
  • Pull out bag of pork, chill it in an ice bath or refrigerator, thinly slice it, and make yourself one of the greatest sandwiches you've ever eaten while sitting at your desk at work. (Quit your job and follow your dream of opening a sandwich shop!)
