Pretzel Bun

Dipping Sauce

Method

Pork Tenderloin Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Pork

    Sprinkle the pork tenderloin with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder evenly on all sides. This will enhance the flavor.

  2. 2

    Prepare Breading Station

    Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls. In the first bowl, add the all-purpose flour. In the second bowl, beat the egg. In the third bowl, add the breadcrumbs.

  3. 3

    Bread the Pork

    Dredge the seasoned pork tenderloin in the flour, shaking off the excess. Dip it into the beaten egg, allowing any excess to drip off, and then coat it with breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

  4. 4

    Fry the Pork

    In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded pork tenderloin. Fry for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 145°F).

  5. 5

    Rest the Pork

    Remove the pork from the skillet and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Assemble the Dish

  1. 6

    Prepare the Pretzel Buns

    While the pork is resting, slice the pretzel buns in half. You may toast them lightly if desired.

  2. 7

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Place a slice of the fried pork tenderloin onto the bottom half of each pretzel bun. Top with the other half of the bun.

Prepare Dipping Sauce

  1. 8

    Mix the Sauce

    In a small bowl, combine the mustard and honey. Stir well to create a smooth dipping sauce.
