  • Those Iowa hang-outside-the-bun breaded pork tenderloins are delicious. An Iowa Mom shows how to make them at home.
    Breaded Pork Tenderloin
    by Lana Shea as posted on An Iowa Mom Videos
    4 tenderloins
    About 2” of tenderloin for 4 tenderloins
    Cut and package the rest and freeze for later
    Cut pork tenderloin into 1/2 inch slices
    Put each slice between parchment paper and pound to ¼” or less thick
    In a pie plate beat together
    2 eggs
    1 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
    1⁄8 teaspoon pepper
    Put on same parchment paper
    1 cup dried breadcrumbs
    Heat up frying pan with enough oil to coat the bottom.
    Dip meat into egg mixture to coat both sides, then dip in crumbs.
    Repeat until each piece is coated twice and fry in the hot oil until golden brown on each side - cooking thermometer should say 160o to be safe. They fry fast so watch (about 5 minutes a side.)
    Makes 4 large tenderloins which can be eaten in a hamburger bun or serve as a meat without buns.
    (These keep in frig for up to 3 days and makes great left overs.)

    I use to get a Tenderloin sandwich at a small roadside dinner in Mt Ayer Iowa. Golden piece of pork hanging over a toasted bun, dill pickles and mustard with a strawberry milkshake…that was 60 years ago and the tenderloin sandwich cost .35 cents…. Now I live in a big city and pay $50 for a ribeye in a fancy restaurant and it can’t hold a candle to that .35 cent Tenderloin sandwich…..where did I go wrong?

      My parents were from Afton, but after they married they moved to KC. I was a city slicker, but drove through Mt Ayer hundreds of times growing up. Nothing better than an Iowa pork tenderloin sandwich. A lot of nostalgia in a sandwich.

    My husband is an Iowan and we recently moved away and he's feeling pretty homesick. He mentioned wishing he could visit iowa and get a tenderloin this evening. I told him to look up a recipe and we can make it. How perfect it is to find your videos! His mom passed years ago so watching your videos tonight felt like home. I wish you had more views and we're monotized. Thanks for making your video Iowa Mom!

    We always used saltine cracker crumbs for ours. I grew up across the Mississippi from Iowa in Rock Island, IL. We love pork tenderloin sandwiches. Our little Dairy Queen made the best and biggest ones. I use the same boneless chops as you, but I use my cast iron tortilla press to flatten them. I cut open a zip lock bag and put a chop on it, then one press of the handle makes it flat.
    You ask for a Pork Tenderloin sandwich here in Texas and you get a blank stare.

      Thanks for sharing. My mom used cracker crumbs for breaded pork chops and they were delicious. You'll have to make tenderloins for some of your neighbors. Who knows, you may start a new trend in Texas. 😄

      Austin Texas here, I grew up in Missouri my dad ran a tenderloin sandwich shop in Chillicothe Mo and I watched him make tenderloins a many nights. When I get hungry for some I make up a batch. Calverts drive-ins have a breaded port tenderloin sandwich that's not bad. I've lived in Texas for 30-plus years and have Known two food trucks that tried to make a go of selling Tenderloins, but both moved back, one to Iowa another just left. Crazy Texans think the only thing good beaded, is a chicken-fried steak, that's made with a beef cutlet.

    I grew up In Iowa. A tenderloin sandwich is great. During High school I lived on pork tenderloins at lunch. These were from a fast food restaurant.
    I have used several recipes to make these at home without much success. They are just not the same. Giant patty's hanging over the bun, mustard a little mustard and sliced dill pickles and this is just great.
    I think the difference is the patty is frozen and then deep fried.
    Thanks for your video.

    I just found this recipe! I have always wanted to try to make them but never knew how! Thank you also for the tip of using plastic wrap over the meat. That would definitely help me as I use a knife to tenderize like my mother did. However, it often cuts thru the meat & the juice does splash around. Thanks for the tips you give as they are so useful! I may have to try to make one! Thanks

    • @IowaMom
      @IowaMom  4 дні тому +1

      I do the EXTRA egg at first then the usual flour then egg again before crumbs. That extra egg layer makes for a thicker crust and egg again after the flour insures that the crumb will stay on the pork.

      I set the timer for 1 minute to check on them. I usually do about 2 minutes on each side. It will depend on how hot the pan is but the minute timer keeps me from burning them. :)

    I love breaded pork tenderloin but never on a (hamburger) bun. I know this is your recipe and how you make it, and it does look good, but I just prefer the patties with brown gravy poured over them; you should try it some time.

    • @IowaMom
      @IowaMom  3 роки тому

      We usually eat it without the bun just to save on carbs. The gravy idea is like chicken fried steak, which was one of my mother's favorites. Thanks for sharing, loveforeignaccents

      You are describing an Austrian schnitzel……which immigrants from Austria brought to Iowa in the 1800’s that was later made into a tenderloin sandwich…. I’m pretty sure most people have tried a schnitzel with gravy but it doesn’t even come close to a tenderloin sandwich

      Thanks for the comment, Mr MR. Yes, they are different cuts of pork but I have used both as shown at the beginning of the video, and as long as you pound out the meat to make the thin patties, I can't tell the difference. You may use the pork tenderloin if you prefer.
