Years ago, I hauled my deep-fryer to a campground and made deep-fried breaded pork tenderloin sandwiches for a Class B RV group outdoors.I finally completed my recipe tutorial that I use to have in another form on a website that died a year ago. It is an illustrated PDF document packed with useful information in 14 pages. If you are a midwesterner and know about pork tenderloin sandwiches or if you are curious, here it is. How to Make the Homemade Breaded Pork Tenderloin Sandwich

oh my! you've really made me hungry for a tenderloin sandwich!

Sorry, but won't be downloading anything from your site. Post it here or not but don't expect folks to download potentially dangerous things to their computer.

I did click on that but it goes to a blank page for me...Can you post the recipe here?

Well it's slow, but I didn't get any warnings. I did read it and as a 74 year old who was born and raised, not to mention spent most of their life in Missouri I can say I've had a few real tenderloin sandwiches.Your recipe is most likely sound, what caught me off guard from an original was Emeril, where was he back then, and panko, same reason.Truth is you have hit it on the head as a representative of the great tenderloin you ordered at the window. You expected just what you show, a thin tenderloin deep fried and on a bun, mine was with mustard, pickle, and onion.Did I say they no longer exist? My favorite sandwich was replaced with an imposter made from ground up "meat", filling, and then frozen waiting for some unsuspecting person like myself to think they had found a real tenderloin sandwich.:-(

I had that tenderloin at the Riverside Club in Mission, Texas last March. It is genuine.

The meat does look like the tenderloins I ate in my youth. They were always a piece of meat pounded thin, breaded and served on an oversized bun with mustard and onion. So good.
I've been burned over the years when it comes to ordering a tenderloin and generally just pass now, unless they assure me they make their own.

There is a restaurant in Mission Tx. called the Riverside Club right on the Rio Grand river that has a Wednesday special of huge tenderloins and they are gooooood and not very expensive and the place was crowded when we went there. Nice crust and very meaty with real meat not ground up meat.

This is a little more than half of my wife's sandwich

If you were at the dam it was in Lake Ozark and the oldest tourist trap in Missouri. It has quite a history as a party place and is known locally as the "Strip". It wouldn't surprise me that you got a less than stellar sandwich there because it is one of those places where business survival is often enshrined in the unknown..

Yes that sounds like it!
Far nicer places to eat in COMO. We spent a lot of time there while son was at Mizzou and really grew to love it. We are hoping daughter might be interested in going to graduate school there.

Leo, Not sure where LOZ is. Like any sandwich you can get a good or bad one. Made right, they can be moist and tender. I hope my recipe tutorial answers that. Odd though, people have different taste and some like them very thin and very crispy.

Sorry, Lake of the Ozarks. Missouri. Near a big dam I believe in a small touristy area. Can't remember the town.

Osage Beach is the name of the town there.

Thanks, yes, I think it is. We were heading down from COMO to look at some lake property and stopped at a bar/restaurant right next to the (bridge? Dam?)

Thanks for posting the recipe, I am going to try it this weekend.

In my travels I have had quite a few and as you said it all depends on the cook. And the region I think, some serve it meat,bread and a pickle and some with all the trimmings. I like the trimmings.
