When it comes to pork tenderloins, I usually grab the pre-marinated ones coz when I read the combo flavor on the package, they just sounds so good. And I admit it, it saves time. But for a while now we haven’t been satisfied with the pre-marinated tenderloins that we’ve bought. Either the meat was a bit dry, or too salty. I don’t know, maybe it’s my oven. HUH? To solve the problem, I bought the fresh tenderloin then made my own marinade.
