- This is some classic Indiana tavern food, and in my opinion the best tasting food I've ever cooked in a video. Thanks very much to all my subscribers and all of your comments!
The crunch says it all!
I had to repost this video that I uploaded 2 weeks ago. It was taken down by You Tube due to "video gaming". They claim that I purchased illegal views, or that I used a "robot" or "spider" to create artificial views. I did not do either of those things. They took down the video along with all the views, likes, and comments. If you watched my original posting of this video, I thank you for watching and all the great comments I received!
That's bullshit dude.
I agree. Once you think you've got the bullshit figured out, they take the bullshit to a whole new level! Lol! Thank you, Russ!
UA-cam is always looking for a way to stick it to people! That's one reason I don't make videos much right now. They left a bad taste in my mouth on some videos I posted. This video is well worth watching again, and again, and again. It's a goodern!
Thanks very much Jeff. I just found out that You Tube deleted my Smoked BBQ Beef video for the same reason. I have a bad taste in my mouth as well. I won't be making any vids for a while. I might quit making them all together.
Don'y do that man. I mentioned you in my last video.
Bud, you just made my day! Enjoy!
Love a good Port T. Thanks for showin us how it's done. I live in Iowa and they're popular here also.
Great video , greenwood indiana gives you a thumbs up my friend
Thanks very much for watching, from Evansville, Indiana!
Thanks for the recipe. My family moved to Texas in the late sixties and I haven't had a fried pork tenderloin sandwich since then. None of my friends even know what I'm talking about. I'm going to make them tomorrow.
+lizrox524 I hope you will enjoy the recipe. I hope it brings back good memories. Thanks for watching!
What I like about your presentation is the passion that shines thru... ya can tell, it comes from your heart... I am a certified Breaded Tenderloin Lover and have been for many years... I own a burger joint in Dalton, GA., and proudly serve authentic BPT. I am widely known for my sandwiches and I am mighty proud. Continue your work...
I'm glad you are able to bring breaded tenderloin sandwiches to people who may otherwise may not be able to enjoy them. Thanks very much for watching my video, sir.
I am a transplanted Hoosier. Born and raised in Tennessee, but have lived in Evansville since ‘81. Not long after moving here I was introduced to the tenderloin sandwich by co-workers and found a new favorite. It won’t replace good Southern pit barbecue, but it will give it some serious competition. Your recipe is exactly the way I make them except I use an electric skillet instead of the Fry Daddy. You do have to turn them, but it works just as well and doesn’t take as much oil. Good video. Thanks for posting.
Thanks very much for watching. I like the barbecue we have around here, but I guess that's a matter of what you grew up eating.
Thanks for the recipe! It looks just as I remember them! And they're certainly delicious! I lived in Indiana when I was a kid and this sandwich brings me some pretty happy memories of those days living and enjoying the hoosier state! Best regards from Spain!
Was in Indianapolis two weeks ago and had a great pork tenderloin sandwich at the colts stadium!! I’m going to use your recipe this Friday for family dinner!! Thank you!!
I hope you and your family enjoy the recipe. Thanks very much for watching!
Great video. I was just getting ready to make some. Had the flour out, egg wash, and Panko bread crumbs. great tutorial video. I'm originally in Illinois guy living out on the west coast now. Sometimes you just miss home.
+Bobby B Thank you very much for watching! I hope you like the recipe and it brings back some good memories from Illinois!
That is Beautiful!! I can hear the crunch from here.. ! Don't give up .... if you do that then they win... Just don't feel like your in it alone.... cause you ain't..
Thank you very much! I'm sorry that you and many other good people on You Tube have been accused of "video game counting", but it comforts me to know that I am not alone!
I grew up in Indiana and my first pork tenderloin sandwich was from a tavern in St. Paul Indiana. My father bought beer and brought both my brother and I pork tenderloin sandwiches with lettuce, tomato, onions, tarter sauce, and french fries so greasy that they soaked the brown paper bag they were packed in. I live in Florida now and my father is gone but I miss both those sandwiches and my father. I will definitely try your recipe because it is the closest to the tavern recipe I remember. Thank you for sticking to the basics.
makeminefreedom Thank you for watching. I hope you try the recipe. Maybe it will bring back some good memories!
Hey Greg,
I am from Indiana and knew some McCutchens. Would you have been acquainted with the Herron family?
From Bedford Ind. ate these for lunch during my school years! Boy do I miss them. Thanks for the recipe and memories!
Bonnie Christensen Thank you very much for watching, Bonnie!
I was raised in Missouri...and grew up eating tenderloin sandwiches. Now I'm in Pennsylvania and they have never heard of them. Thanks for your video.
+Just Judy Thanks for watching. You should cook some pork tenderloin sandwiches for some of your Pennsylvania friends. You could probably open a restaurant and make a fortune!
mmm looks even better than the Indiana State Fair! I'll try this recipe out on my hubs he loves tenderloins! Thanks!
+Positive Gal I hope you give the recipe a try. I'm sure your hubs will love it. Thanks for watching!
Thanks so much for the recipe! I have missed these soooo much! My mouth is watering from watching your vid! LOL!
Thanks very much for watching!
I'm from southern IL and now live in Texas. I havn't been home in a long while so I decided to make one myself. Miracle whip ketsup and vidalia onion makes it perfect. Also have country bobs I had to order on line cause they don't sell it here.
I feel sorry for you for not being able to get Country Bob's at your local grocery store. I take that for granted. Thanks very much for watching!
This may be a duplicate as I haven't read all the comments. I'm from Huntington, Indiana and that is the home of Nick's Kitchen with the greatest pork tenderloins in Indiana! I'm sure yours are great too! Thanks for the video...
My mouth is watering! I love a good pork tenderloin sandwich! We grew up on these in Souhern Illinois.
+Cathy Clark Thank you very much for watching, Cathy!
my grandparents raised me on Mr Dan Tenderloins here in indianapolis love homemade ones also
Thanks for watching.
Fantastic! I love peanut oil for frying, there is nothing better. This looks wonderful and I love a pork tenderloin sandwich too. I sure hope I find those onion rings listed too. Great Video! Bless, Sheila
I'm from NW Ohio and it's pretty common here too. It's a German heritage thing! Have it with some kartofelpoffer or more commonly known as a potato pancake
Thank you very much for watching.
Oh My Gosh You have made me so homesick. I was raised in Indiana, now live in Louisiana. got to get me some tenderloin.
lois fitzgerald Thank you very much for watching, Lois. Fry you up a couple of these and you will not feel so homesick!
Loved your video! My dear grandparents, oh my lord.... the breaded pork tenderloin my grandmother could cook! She cooked it as a meal with mashed potatoes, gravy and corn or green beans..... lol I’m in my 50’s, she passed at a young 98! Don’t know where or how she learned.... Grandpa came from south side of Chicago, her, transplanted on north side, coming from Mi..... I’m inspired to make it again! Thank You! ❤️
I hope you give the recipe a try. I hope it brought back some good memories. Thanks very much for watching!
Greg McCutchan thank you Greg! Lol, God knows, we all need some comfort food these days! Biscuits and gravy, or soups and homemade bread are my current go too!
LOVE these sandwiches1 For some reason they aren't sold near Chicago , When my grandparents were alive on the north-western edge of IL,, there were lots of places to find this delicious sandwich........ but notihnig here niw.
Thank you very much for watching!
Oh my Gosh!! I want some!! Those onion rings look amazing!!
Thanks very much for watching!
Yeah man, I’m gonna go make that up here in Indy 👍 thanks man!
I hope you give it a try. I don't think you'll be disappointed. Thanks very much for watching!
I Do prep exactly like you Greg except after Panko breading, I put them in fridge for couple hours on open plate. Firms up the breading adherence to the pork. I fry in a cast iron skillet with one inch peanut oil flipping twice. So I grew up in NE Kansas and we always had tenderloins even at A & W. Same for Iowa, Missouri & southern Illinois. It’s a Mid-Westerner thingy!
That's great advice. I always put my breaded chicken in the refrigerator for awhile before I fry it. Thanks for watching!
I love these sandwiches. My Dad made them for us when we were growing up; his Dad ran a restaurant in Evansville, IN, where the pork tenderloin sandwich was a very popular item on the menu. Seeing how Evansville is a very German town, I bet it's Wienerschnitzel some hungry German immigrant put between two slices of bread after several biers, many years ago.
I'll bet the sandwiches your Dad made were amazing! Thank you very much for watching!
I went on the hunt for pork tenderloin sandwiches and found some great ones. Yours looks delish and I am so trying my take on making the Hoosier Sandwich. What a great find and thanks for sharing.
This is probably the tastiest thing I have ever cooked on video. Thanks very much for watching!
I am your 940th subscriber. I am from south eastern Indiana. I used to get really good ones at the county fairs when I was a kid. Can't find any good ones in my county now, it's very small. So I am going to try your recipe. I can't wait to try it again in the summer so I can have some local tomatoes and Vidalia onions. Next I'm going to try your onion rings. Thanks.
Thanks very much for watching and subscribing. I live in southwest Indiana and we fortunately have several bars and restaurants that serve very good tenderloin sandwiches year round. I hope you give the recipe a try!
I was looking for the best recipe again and thought yours looked familiar (and best). I scrolled down and there I was, a year earlier. I had to laugh. I'm headed to the kitchen now, I also have some Vidalias for onion rings. Just an FYI, the tenderloin was invented in Huntington, IN by Nick Freienstein, early 20th century. The restaurant is still open. Well< I'm off to the kitchen!
Thanks very much for watching, again! I'm glad you enjoy the recipe!
"If you get a tenderloin sandwich smaller than your bun, then you got a problem" True! We moved over 60miles from my favorite tenderloin. You give me hope, I can make one! I don't have a fryer. But I expect that peanut oil is a good tip too. I appreciate it. I wish your original video was still posted. I'd like to read the comments. Thank you for persisting and re-posting. I wish they'd make right by you.
You don't have to have a deep fryer. You could do this in a deep skillet filled with oil. I would suggest getting a thermometer and heating the oil to around 375° before dropping in the meat. I hope that you give it a try and I thank you very much for watching!
Great video, Greg! We are recent transplants from Iowa to Sarasota FL, and you are exactly right, the great pork tenderloin sandwich is a Midwest phenomena! We cannot find a tenderloin offered in any restaurant down here and have searched diligently. Even at the FL state fair in Tampa the food vendors gave us that deer in the headlights stare. No clue on the tenderloin! Anyway, your video saved the day. We are craving one and with your good help we will feed our addiction this weekend. Virtual fist bump from a fellow tenderloin fanatic! Thanks Man!
Steve W Thank you Steve! If you can't buy them in a restaurant, cook them yourself. Maybe you could open a restaurant down there and educate those folks about Midwestern food! I wish I could, I think a restaurant in Florida specializing in Midwestern comfort food would be a gold mine!
Greg, that looks so doggone juicy and tender that it has my tummy growling! Thanks for showing us how to make this yummy sandwich! I think acquiring 130 subscribers in that short time is proof that you're doing things right! Congrats!
Thank you very much Sir! If you've never had a pork tenderloin sandwich before, I hope you give the recipe a try. Thanks for watching!
Great job just the way I do them at home and I was born in South Bend Indiana lol
Thanks for watching!
Magnificent ! Oh wow yum
Thanks very much! As I said in the video, this is kind of a mid western American sandwich. Do you have any similar type of dishes where you live? I'm just curious!
The good old Aussie pie and the Aussie burger are traditional here
I'm from Indiana! Breaded Pork Tenderloin Sandwich and the NRA...you can't get anymore American than that! Yes you are right. I moved from Indiana in 6th grade to Ohio then Missouri then Texas and now in Georgia. None of those places have the Tenderloin Sandwich.
Thank you very much for watching!
Not sure what happened, but I know I seen you do this a week or so ago. That is some killer stuff right there. They are popular here in Illinois as well. I love em.And you rocked it buddy.I'm fixin to do a Central IL favorite today and it's gonna be right up your alley with this dish.
Thanks for watching AGAIN Russ! You Tube took my video down and I had to post it again. I can't wait to see what you have in store for your next video!
Hmmm. Freaking YT
Looking good. Tomato's are in down here and I'll give it a try.
I thank you for watching this video AGAIN after You Tube made me repost it. I can't wait for a fresh tomato, it won't be much longer around here!
Greg McCutchan I thought I had seen but my brain convinced me it was someone else's :)
I crave these. I used to get these in Illinois. I never see these in Florida. First time I made them I pounded too thin. Glad to see your video. I'm buying my pork tenderloin this week. Pork loin is that the same as pork tenderloin ?
Pork loin is different than pork tenderloin but it can be used to make a sandwich in place of tenderloin. Thanks very much for watching.
Yummmy!
Thank you very much, Bebe!
Did you know that this is our pork version of a Weiner Schnitzel? Yep, my father used to make these when I was young, and when I wanted to make one, I looked on UA-cam and people all over were fighting over what it was. Most called it Weiner Schnitzel but it's actually our American version of it. Mostly from the 1920-1930's Real Weiner Schnitzel is made with Veal Cutlets, made the same way. The pork is a cheaper version of it, that turned out to be very popular all over the country, and that's also why so many claim it to be a favorite of their state! Of course there are as many versions of it as there are states. LOL The original is a German food that was brought here by the Germans and became very popular, but a bit before and during, the depression, it was changed to pork. My father (an Irishman) said when he was small, everyone had them, even the poor, because even they could afford them. I do love them, and the tenderloin does indeed make a huge difference. Sorry for going on so, but this got my good memories flowing and I couldn't stop! LOL Great Video, Thank you, Sheila
+Sheila6325 Sheila, this is a German dish for sure. Like your father, I am from Irish descent, but there is a large population of people from German heritage in my home town. From what I understand the Schnitzel is pan fried in an iron skillet, and the traditional pork tenderloin from my part of the country is deep fried. I'm not sure how true this is, but I certainly thank you for watching!
Greg McCutchan Yep, that's exactly what I learned about it too. We deep fried too, but used a cast iron pan!! LOL little bit of both. I have many cast iron pans, and I do love them. Bless, Sheila
I was raised in SW Indiana (Vincennes). I occassionally make tenderloin sandwiches, but my husband (native Californian) won't eat them on a bun! That's his loss! My daughter wants my recipe, so I'm sending your video to her.
UpCountryNana Thanks so much for watching! I live in E'ville and have been to Vincennes many times. I hope your daughter will enjoy my video!
Looks yummy!
Love it, thank you! It's whats for Dinner today!!!
+Ronda Goodlet Thanks very much for watching, I hope you enjoy your dinner!
Making it now as my Son wanted a late dinner!! So far, so good! Looks great! Making the Onion Rings as well! Thank you!
When I was in college my parents moved to Lenexa, KS and during summers I pumped gasoline at a public station. That's when the guys I worked with first introduced me to this sandwich. The bun was larger, and it contained tomato, mayo and iceberg lettuce. The thought of one always makes me salivate.
Thanks for watching!
miss this since I moved from Indiana, will defiantly have to try this
Thanks for watching! I hope you give the recipe a try and it brings back good memories!
I love these things. Whenever I come back to Evansville to visit my parents the first thing is a Stromboli and the 2nd is a pork tenderloin sandwich.
Scott Postin Thanks for watching! I love Stromboli as well. Do you like to get yours from Pizza King?
Greg McCutchan Yes, love Pizza King.
Why aren’t these available nationwide? I grew up enjoying these and I really miss them now that I live in the south.
i have the same deep fryer as you! i love it because it doubles as a crock pot!!!
I love that fryer! As you said it can be used as a slow cooker. I've never tried it, but they say it can also be used steamer. Thanks for watching!
you knocked it out of the park.
Rick Taylor Thank you very much for watching, Rick!
Mmmmmm. Got to try this in my deep fryer. I work at a gourmet grocery store, and get a 25 percent employee discount. We often run a good sale on pork tenderloins, and I also got some in my freezer. This is one of the few things I miss abou my home state :)
+Zeek Hedgehog Thanks very much for watching. I hope you give the recipe a try. I'm sure you will like it!
Excellent video on how to make a pork tenderloin sandwich. It's an extremely popular sandwich at the Iowa State Fair.
+John Effrein Thank you very much for watching.
+Greg McCutchan great job
Someone that actually knows the difference.
Looks great, Greg. Salem loves the tenderloin sandwich!!!
Thanks very much for watching in Salem!
That's funny you say that, Greg. My wife and I have talked about the very same thing. You can't buy great Midwest beef or pork down here either. We pack a big cooler with a whole short loin, rib eyes, and pork chops when we come back from Iowa. Grain fed goodness. Nothing compares! I definitely think there would be a market down here for the finer Midwest foods. And that means an Indiana style tenderloin sandwich on page 1 of the menu. 😋
Steve W Thanks Steve! My Mom and Dad retired and moved to Florida a few months ago. They tell me that the prices of meat are outrageous down there and the quality is not nearly as good as what we get up here! My Mom has started making her own homemade BBQ sauce because they can't find any store bought sauces at the grocery store that they like. I wish I had the courage and money to quit my job and move down there and open a restaurant!
Hey Greg, years ago in downtown Kansas City there was a restaurant that would have pork tenderloin sandwiches on Friday, and you had to have your order in by 10:00am or you did not get any as they just made a certain amount. Also theirs came with mayo, horseradish, pickles and lettuce. And theirs was as big as your plate in your video, they would give you and extra bun and you actually had two very large sandwiches. Thanks for the video, today looked for a tenderloin but could not find a single at Sam's Club...
+Elkins24 That's a great memory of a great restaurant. There aren't many places like that anymore. Thanks for watching!
IF YOU LIVE DOWN SOUTH IT'S EASIER IF YOU USE 6 OZ.
CENTER CUT BONELESS PORK CHOPS.
*PRO TIP*
SHHH...IT'S EVEN BETTER!
My buddy is from Logansport and showed me how to make these about 30 years ago. In his version it's topped with Muenster cheese plus the LTM. Good sammich!
Thanks for watching!
Nick's Kitchen in Huntington has the best in the state from what I hear. They originated in Northern Indiana I believe. There is a good read on it on wikipedia I believe. Good video
Thanks very much for watching!
North central Indiana ( Kokomo ) ....you made a perfect sandwich
Thanks very much for watching. I consider that a real compliment coming from a fellow Hoosier.
just awesome Greg. im from indiana and i haven't had one since i moved. i will be making this soon.
Thanks very much for watching George. I hope you give the recipe a try!
lol, the bun sure does fit ! Sure looks good...
Thanks for watching!
Have you ever used anything other than panko? if so what are some other breadings? Someone mentions crushed saltines but that does not sound that great.
Crushed Ritz is normally good too.. The crushed saltines are actually better than they sound!
I made this last week.
It was very good!
I am going to try
crushed corn flakes instead of the bread crumbs.
Thanks for watching and trying the recipe! Let me know how the corn flakes work out for you.
Fine looking Sandwich Greg, I have never done the Egg/Flour/Egg double dip before. I will have to try that, the crust on that Pork was awesome.
Lumpy Q Thank you very much, Lumpy. This breading method works very well for me every time. Thanks for watching!
great Vid !
+M Dot Thank you for watching!
If you had ever been to the race track in Anderson IN. in the 70’s-80’s, they sold the best tenderloins in America
Look damn good and those rings, he’ll yeah, now I got to look for one those awesome thermos’s !!!
It was probably the best tasting thing I ever cooked in a video. Thanks very much for watching!
OMG that looks amazing. I have GOT to have one soon.
Thanks very much for watching, Dinah!
WOW that was amazing! Looks so good.
It was very good. Thanks very much for watching!
@@gregmccutchan. you got it. New sub here. It looked as good as my mom's.
That looks sooo goood!
Kim Mozingo Thank you very much for watching!
Looking for some ideas for a fried pork sandwich I'm making tonight. Looks good
No Hippie BBQ & Cooking Thanks for stopping by, Lyle. I hope you give the recipe a try. It's one of my favorites.
Nice video If you pound them to thin they become to dry when fried fact
Thanks very much for watching.
Great one Greg, this is my kind of dish. I do some similar schnitzels using pork chops, I can only imagine the pork tenderloin makes it more better, as keith would say.
Jean Croton Thanks very much, Jean! I think this is the best dish I've ever cooked (on video) so far.
Hey Greg, this week the Indiana Pork Sandwich showed up in one of my feeds and I decided to make a couple.
Doing some research your video popped up and here I am again.
I'll let you know how they turn out.
I hope you like it. Using panko is not "traditional" according to some people but IMO this was the best tasting thing I ever cooked on video.
I used a panko / bread crumb mix heavily seasoned and these turned out superb.
With definitely be making these again.
I love it when a plan comes together.
DUDE - thank you, NRA!!!! All day - every day!!! too cute.
Thanks very much for watching. I'm proud to be an NRA member!
Hey Greg , Ammo head turned me on to your channel . looks great ! I had never heard of those type of sandwiches . It reminds me of schnitzel , and I love that stuff . I'm gonna make one tonight .
Thanks for watching, Tracy. Ammohead is one hell of a good guy!
You just whipped up a perfect tenderloin sandwich with gorgeous onion rings as an afterthought? Are you single??? Cuz you had me at Vidalia. 😍
Lol! Thanks very much for watching!
Greg, It looks amazing! Love the onion rings. Sending a PM. Take care. :)
Tess Cooks 4u Thanks Tess! This was a great meal!
Hi Greg. At what stage in this process would they freeze best? Thanks!
Carrie Linde You can freeze the tenderloins after completing the breading process. Just lay them out flat on a cookie sheet and place them in the freezer for a few hours. When they are frozen solid, transfer them to freezer bags. You can place the frozen tenderloins in the deep fryer and cook them, but be careful putting the patties in the hot oil. The ice crystals can make the oil pop and splatter, so don't burn yourself. Thank you for watching!
I hear you about Indiana from muncie in TN right now. sportsmans bar has the best
That looks like the yummy versions I've seen on TV that I've been dying to try. Is it sacrilege to put cheese on it? Is there an Indiana cheese that works well? And you gotta do the onion rings video...
Andrew Magnan Thank you for watching. It is not a sin to add cheese to the sandwich. If it were me, being an Indiana boy, I would use good old American cheese. Not real cheese, but "processed cheese food", (Kraft Singles), but you can add whatever cheese or toppings you like. I have already made the Onion Ring video. Check out my channel and thanks again for watching!
Greg...those look excellent! Would canola oil be okay to sub for the peanut oil? (:
+lemoncrinckles Yes, you can use canola oil or vegetable oil. I just used peanut oil in the video because that's what I prefer for deep frying. Thank you very much for watching!
Hey Greg! Yer darn tootin these are good! My only question is,When am I gonna makem next!LOL
Where is your favorite restaurant to buy a pork tenderloin in southern indiana? I'm in Floyd County, Georgetown, IN.
My favorite place for pork tenderloin is probably The Hilltop Inn in Evansville.
@@gregmccutchan. Thanks for the reply. I travel up and down 64 all summer on my motorcycle. When I visit my friend in Haubstadt I will check it out.
@@gregmccutchan. Thanks for the reply. I travel up and down 64 all summer on my motorcycle. When I visit my friend in Haubstadt I will check it out.
Why is it a problem if it doesn't hang over the bun, will it change the taste?
The taste will be the same, but having the meat larger than the bread is how the sandwich is traditionally made. I don't know where this originated, but this is how it's done.
okay, thanks for replying. I am from southern IN, but moved to Kentucky over 12 years ago. I miss the pork tenderloin sandwiches from the West Side Nut Club fall festival in Indiana
Greg im making this soon and very soon. Love it my friend.
Ray Mack's Kitchen and Grill Thank you very much for watching Ray. I hope you will make this dish. I'm sure you will like it!
I am pretty sure the pork tenderloin sandwich has been done before in Europe but may not have become such a staple. Look up schnitzel it is exactly what this is.
I'm aware of what a schnititzel is. It's not exactly the same.
Looks delicious. New Sub here!
Thanks very much for watching and subscribing!
I have always done it flour then eggs then bread crumbs...
Greg. I kid you not! You make me one of those and I'll make you a horseshoe! Not kidding! That's yummy!
That's a deal Russ! We will have to make that happen!
You anywhere near evansville?
Ever freeze after breading?
Yes.
If you like tenderloins you should try the bakes at Louis in Kokomo.
Thought we used crushed saltines
:23 ......the thing that popped out of Kane's chest in Alien?
Lmao!
Yes, thank you NRA!
Sorry that happened. You can appeal but I'm not sure how much good that will do. So I'm rewatching.
Thank you very much for watching again. I filed an appeal, but as you said it probably won't do any good.
I now live in Southern Alabama I’m gonna get these people going on the sandwich there are ridiculous down here with her stuff to eat this is much better
Durkee mustard and onions.
