How do you cook a pork tenderloin without drying out? Cook the pork tenderloin at 425°F for 15-20 minutes, basting it with additional marinade occasionally. Check that the pork has reached an internal temperature of 145°F with a meat thermometer, then take it out of the oven. The high cooking temperature ensures quick cooking without drying out the meat.
Should pork tenderloin be cooked fast or slow? Pork tenderloin is a lean and delicate cut of meat that should be cooked quickly to prevent it from drying out. The best way to cook pork tenderloin is to roast it in a hot oven or grill it over high heat. Should you cover a pork tenderloin in the oven?
