Pork tenderloin is a lean and tender cut of meat taken from the muscle that runs along the backbone of the pig. It's long, cylindrical, and typically measures about 1 to 1.5 pounds. With its mild flavor and smooth texture, pork tenderloin is highly versatile and can be cooked in various ways such as roasting, grilling, or pan-searing. It's often marinated or seasoned to enhance its taste and pairs well with a variety of sauces, herbs, and sides. Because it's so tender, it cooks relatively quickly, making it a favorite for quick yet elegant meals.

Pork Tenderloin
Our pigs are a Berkshire heritage breed pork. They are raised here in Akron, CO on a diet of fresh pasture grasses, grains, and seasonal produce. Pigs only have a single stomach like humans and cannot survive on grass alone. They can eat it, of course. It is not toxic to them. However, they cannot extract the proteins from the grass due to the high fiber content. This is why we supplement with grains. Our pigs live on sheltered pastures with access to sunshine, fresh water, and a constant supply of fresh greens.
