Essential Guide to Pork Tenderloin

Instructions

• 1

  Place the Joule™ Turbo Sous Vide inside a pot or large vessel and place on a trivet. Fill with warm tap water until approximately halfway between the minimum and maximum fill lines.

  Tip: A trivet will protect your countertop from direct contact with the hot pot or vessel.
• 2

  Slice the tenderloin(s) in half crosswise and place in a microwave-safe, zipper-lock freezer bag, side by side, with the longest edge running along the base of the bag. Sprinkle with salt and add the oil. If cooking more than 1 tenderloin, use multiple bags.  You can either place the bagged tenderloin(s) in the water bath or refrigerate until the water has preheated.

  Tip: You can substitute the oil for any flavored oil or butter. Also feel free to add your favorite herbs, spices or dry rub.

  Press Set Time & Temp below and follow the prompts to customize the cooking of your pork tenderloin(s). Press Start preheat. If your pork is in the water bath, enable Autostart timer. Or, once prompted place the pork tenderloin(s) in the water and press Start timer now.

  When the timer signals that the pork is done, heat a cast iron skillet or heavy-based frying pan over high heat. Carefully remove the bag from the water. Place the tenderloin(s) on a paper towel lined cooling rack set over a tray and pat dry. 

• 5

  Only when the pan starts to smoke (this will prevent overcooking and sticking), add 1 tablespoon of oil and sear the tenderloin(s) for 30 seconds on each side. Transfer the pork to a cooling rack set over a tray and rest for 1 minute. Repeat as necessary to cook all pork tenderloins. 

  Tip: For extra flavor and color, you can add a knob of butter and baste the tenderloin(s) while searing.
