I have made this twice. Once exactly as written and the second time was for a party and I made the pork tenderloin into bites. Excellent both times! I wish I could share the photo.

Loved it! I tried it last night as a test for an event in January. It was perfect. In January, I will cut the tenderloin into bites that I will cook in the air fryer and make the sauce to serve with the bites. One slight change I plan to do is to leave about 1/4 cup of the sauce with the identifiable berries and then I’ll mix the puree back into the bit with the whole berries.

I mean technically you could, but I wouldn’t. It’s not a straight swap. Pork loin is larger, leaner, and takes longer to cook than tenderloin. Since this recipe is built around tenderloin’s quick-cooking nature (high heat and short bake time), using pork loin will leave you with dry, overcooked meat—or underdone in the center. If you do use decide to use it…adjust cooking time and temperature accordingly—lower and slower works better for loin. Watch closely to avoid overcooking; aim for an internal temp of 145°F and let it rest.

Yes, it really makes the flavor of the sauce. If you want to have bacon sprinkled on top, make extra, but it really adds to the flavor of the sauce.

Really looking forward to trying this with a roast and tenderloin. Thank you in advance
Chris
