Pork Tenderloin Prep
To maximize the flavor of this dish, it's best to marinate the pork tenderloin overnight in the bourbon and brown sugar mixture.
To do this, combine the ingredients together in a large container and add the trimmed pork tenderloin to the container. Toss the tenderloin in the mixture every few hours to marinate the pork well.
One it is ready to be roasted in the oven, create an aluminum foil packet to prevent the juices from leaking onto the potatoes.
The meat and potatoes are finished at the same time - perfect for busy weeknights and it makes it a great sheet pan pork tenderloin dinner!
It's important to check the internal temperature of the thickest part of the pork tenderloin after allowing it to rest for 3 minutes. The internal temperature should read at least 145°F. For the most accurate results and for food safety, use a meat thermometer.
