what temp does pork tenderloin need to be at
The Right Temperature. A pork tenderloin is perfectly cooked when a quick-read thermometer, inserted at the thickest part of the cut, reads 145 degrees Fahrenheit. Although 160 F is the traditional standard for cooked meat, the U.S. Department of Agriculture has determined that pork cooked to between 140 and 145 F is still safe to eat.
