This Apple Pork Tenderloin recipe is a healthy and delicious twist of the cozy fall favorite combination of pork and apples. Featuring a succulent pork loin infused with cinnamon, ginger and thyme and topped with an utterly delicious bourbon apple compote. You’ll love this easy apple pork loin!
Hi, friends! I hope you are ready for the ultimate cozy, delicious, totally fall recipe! Brown Sugar Roasted Pork Tenderloin with a leek and bourbon apple cider compote. I know that’s a ridiculously long title, but to be fair all those words feel important.
About this apple pork tenderloin
This pork tenderloin is sweet and savory with warm, muted fall flavors of cinnamon, ginger and thyme. The outside is scrumptiously caramelized, while the inside is perfectly tender, succulent and juicy.
But, all that deliciousness is enhanced and complimented by the apple compote. The compote almost tastes like apple sauce… on culinary crack. It is sweet, savory, boozy, cinnamon-a-riffic and chunk-tastic with pops of raisin-y flava. It is totally delish.
The compote and pork tenderloin together take the classic apple and pork pairing to a whole new level of yum. It is comforting and filling, yet light and healthy.
Tips for purchasing pork loins at the store
If you are purchasing those cleaned, individually wrapped pork tenderloins, you are spending too much money for your pork tenderloin. It is SUPER easy to clean a tenderloin yourself, I found a video for you here.
One of those pre-cleaned tenderloins is about $9.99. But, if you purchase untrimmed pork tenderloins, you can get a package of two for about $6.99. I don’t have to tell you that is a HUGE savings for a small amount of work. Legit, it took me about 2 minutes to clean each tenderloin. I understand I went to culinary school and have practice at cleaning tenderloins, but even without experience, it should only take you about 15 minutes, tops. If you ask me, 15 minutes of work is worth all the money you will save. So, check out the video and give it a try… it’s easier than you may think!
Overall, this dish is fall fabulous and will have you putting down the pumpkin… at least momentarily. 😉 So grab yourself a couple tenderloins and get your oink-oink lovin’ on. Until next time, Cheers! To delicious fall flavors and staying warm!

How to make pork tenderloin apple recipe👇
Brown Sugar Roasted Pork Tenderloin with Apple-Cider-Leek-Bourbon Compote
Ingredients
- 2 (1# each) Pork Tenderloin – trimmed of silver skin
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Rub:
- 5 TBS Brown Sugar
- 1 tsp Cinnamon
- 1 tsp Mustard Powder
- ½ tsp Ground Ginger
- 1 ½ tsp Dried Thyme
- 2 tsp Kosher Salt
- 1 tsp Ground Black Pepper
- Compote: (yield: 3 ½ Cups)
- 2 TBS Unsalted Butter
- 2 medium Leeks – white portion only, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced (about ¾ cup)
- ¼ tsp Kosher Salt
- 1/8 tsp White Ground Pepper
- 4 Granny Smith Apples – peeled and small dice
- ¼ Cup Raisins
- ½ Cup Apple Cider
- 1 TBS Ginger – grated
- ½ tsp Mustard Powder
- ¼ tsp Ground Cinnamon
- 1 TBS Pure Maple Syrup
- ¼ Cup Bourbon
Instructions
- Prepare the Pork Tenderloin: In a small bowl combine the rub ingredients. Pat the pork tenderloins dry and apply the rub mixture, with your hands, to all sides of the pork, massaging spices into the pork tenderloin. Optional, but recommended: wrap the pork tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 4 hours up to overnight. (Remove plastic wrap from pork and discard when ready to cook)
- Meanwhile, Make the Compote: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the leeks, salt, and pepper. Sauté until onion is soft and light golden in color, about 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add apples, raisins, apple cider, ginger, mustard, cinnamon, maple syrup and bourbon. Bring to a boil compote to a boil and immediately reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the apples are soft and the mixture has thickened slightly, about 6 minutes. Remove cover and continue to cook for 5-6 minutes until compote is thickened and reduced. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Cook the Tenderloin: Remove pork from fridge 30 minutes prior to roasting, remove plastic wrap and discard. Set pork aside to remove chill. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Line a roasting pan or baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy clean up. Insert a wire rack large enough to hold both tenderloins into pan and add tenderloins. Roast until pork is slightly caramelized and an instant read thermometer reads 140-145 degrees F, about 25 minutes. Transfer pork to a clean work surface, tent lightly with aluminum foil and let rest 10 minutes before slicing.
- To Serve: Slice the pork tenderloin into thick rounds and top with compote. Serve and enjoy!
Notes
*Compote will keep, stored in a covered container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

I totally love shopping for fall/winter clothing! Scarves and boots just make me smile. This pork tenderloin looks ah-mazing!! Great tip on saving money, lucky for me my fiancé used to work for a butcher, so he does all of my meat trimming. Yes, I make him work for food, but I think he secretly enjoys it 😉
What a delicious looking pork tenderloin and the compote sounds mouth watering.
Well girl, don’t even complain about cold weather I live in NY and I already started counted the days when summer is back! I honestly can’t wait to move somewhere warm!!! Oh, and that pork tenderloin looks so juicy and delish, I plan on making some next week too 🙂 Pinned!
Saving money to buy more scarves? I am SO with you there girlie! I could definitely use some new scarves and a big bite of this juicy pork right now! NOMS.
I’m so glad you are with me on the scarf loooove! Thanks so much for the comment, my dear! Cheers! <3
Cheyanne, I hear ya on your husband comment. My wife thinks the same about me when I have to go outside and pay our yardman. Just kidding 🙂 I love that the weather is getting colder however, in Louisiana it has yet to rain and we are in dire need of it. The pork though looked amazing. I am a huge fan of pork tenderloins. Love grilling them and smoking them. Going to have to try it your way. It looks so good thank you for sharing that.
HA! Your hilarious, Quinton! Honestly, we did check out a bunch of yard services when we first moved here and everyone wanted like 200-250$ because our yard is so big! FORGET THAT! So much cheaper to DIY! Thanks so much for stopping by and commenting! Cheers to a beautiful day! P.S. Hope you guys get rain soon!! Fingers are crossed for you!
This is amazing, Cheyanne! Every time I visit your blog, I wish I could go to culinary school. Your culinary creativity and practical tips are a shining model of what going to culinary school can mean, although I wouldn’t be so naive to think that culinary school gave you your creativity…I’m sure you were born with that! But I just mean to say that if LCB could pick a model spokesperson for them, you would be the perfect pick <3 I love that you've created a savory meals with fall flavors, and that apple compote looks and sounds dreamy…#culinarycrack…I'm totes down! Boy was probably mowing that lawn with no complaints knowing he'd be coming inside to this delicious meal waiting for him! <3 XOXO
Lol, Culinary school was a lot of fun, and I DID learn a lot… but I still need to go to Mon Petit Four culinary school!! I would love to see you in action teaching! Plus I would love to some of your tricks and tips on baking! You create SUCH delicious treats!!! As far as the spokesperson, I totally laughed out loud!! I’m so awkward and AWFUL in front of a camera! I would embarrass them! lol But thanks for the flattery, my dear! You always make my day with you comments! I LUHV ya, Beeta! Cheers, doll. XOXO <3
Awesome tip on cleaning your own pork tenderloin. Reason why I never buy it is because of the high price tag. Not anymore! I’m gonna watch that video.
Also, I want to top all of my poultry recipes with apple cider bourbon compote.
Glad I could help, Nicole! Pork tenderloin is SO cheap when you clean it yourself! The ones I bought were actually on sale BOGO, so I got 4 tenderloins for 6.99!! You can’t beat that! Thanks so much for the sweet comment, girlfriend! Cheers!
It’s starting to get super chilly here too!! I’m loving the cool breeze though 🙂 makes it even cozier to stay home and bake – haha! This sounds incredible – I want this for dinner! The apple cider bourbon compote looks amazing too. Such a perfect cold day meal.
I couldn’t agree more about the weather, Rachel! Thanks so much for the kind comment, girlie! Cheers to a beautiful day, staying home and baking! 😉
Great info on cleaning your own tenderloin, Cheyanne, and I do love pork! This is right up my alley with the sweet and spicy, and I could make a meal out of that apple cider bourbon compote alone! Pinned. 🙂
Thank you so much for the sweet comment AND the pin, Marcie!! Cheers to a beautiful day, my dear! 😉
Awesome tip on buying pork tenderloin Cheyanne! Will keep that in mind next time I cook with it. As for this dish I am in love. Apple cider bourbon compote?! Yes please!
Thanks so much, Kelley! I hate seeing people over pay for food! Cheers to a fantastic day! 😉
Ha ha, I am so with you on the lawn mowing thing! Funny! And I just love pork tenderloin but haven’t made one in ages. Loving all the flavors in this recipe! Looks delicious!
Well, thank you for not making me feel crazy, Denise! So glad someone else is with me on the hubs and lawn thang! Thanks so much for the sweet comment, girlie! Cheers to a fabulous day! 😉
haha um yeah, it got colddddd here all of a sudden! I took out my jackets and scarves this weekend too! And I’ve also been dealing with a massive cold .. ugh so not fun! Hope you feel better soon!
PS this pork sounds amazing!
I am LOVING the cold weather, Ashley! The cold + Sunshine is SOOO much better than that monsoon we dealt with for 2 weeks straight, riiiight? I’m sorry you are sick as well, I’m thinking its the wacky change in weather. Hopefully you feel better soon too!!! Thanks for the comment, my dear. Cheers! <3
I love the first really cool morning of fall. The crisp, clean air, shuffling around the house in giant fuzzy slippers, and seeing your breath for the first time. I haven’t quite felt a day like that out here in our new home, and I’m not sure I will, but a girl can dream, can’t she? 😉 Plus, I think cool weather clothes are way cuter – so hooray for getting to go on a shopping spree!
Culinary crack just about sums up this entire dish! Actually, for those that are tired of making turkey on Thanksgiving, this would be a fantastic alternative!
I agree, Kathleen! The first taste of fall is pretty stellar! I am definitely rocking my comfy sweatshirts and fuzzy socks (inside). I hope you get a least a small dose of fall weather out on the east coast! If not, you can always come visit me! 😉 Thanks so much for the sweet comment, and you are totally right, this would be a great alternative for thanksgiving! XO
I thought I was the only nut cutting the grass (and the fallen leaves because who’s got time for raking and cutting?) with it being 47 degrees – but y’all are doing it in 32 degrees! When oh when does this grass stop growing!!! 🙂
BTW – that Apple-Cider-Leek-Bourbon Compote sounds insanely delish! I think I could eat that straight up!
Okay, so weird. I was just on your site looking at your Cinnamon Bacon donuts and commenting and I came back to my site and saw your comment here!! Lol. I’ll admit, I was stalking you. 😉 And no you aren’t the only nut job cutting grass! I have no clue when it will stop growing, but I hope soon!!!! Thanks so much for the sweet words, my dear! Cheers XO
I attempted to shop this weekend for fall clothes but failed coz the baby was being difficult! But I’m going back without him this weekend as its so cold and my post baby bod needs clothes!! The spices on this rub are amazing. I’ll have to use it on beef since I can’t eat pork.
I hope you get your shopping on this weekend, girlfriend! Your baby is soooo dang cute, it’s hard to be upset that he thwarted your shopping spree plans! But you totally deserve new clothes for the post baby bod, Z! Rock that shiiiii out! I knew you didn’t eat pork 🙁 But you can always just eat the compote by the spoonful.. I did. lol Cheers, my sweets!
Wow, theres so many amazing spices in this pork dish, it sounds incredible!!!! You make so many delicious things Cheyanne! I love this recipe! The apple compote sounds soooo amazing too! YUMMY!
Thank you so very much, Harriet!! 🙂 Cheers, girlfriend and thanks for making me smile!
You had me at pork. No apple cider. No bourbon. Ok, this is just an awesome recipe! Can’t wait to try. Perfect for Fall with a big ol’ glass of cold white wine 🙂
hahahaha! I’m so glad I had you at multiple words! Thanks so much for the super sweet comment, my dear! Cheers!
Great money-saving tip and I love the compote! Seriously sounds so fantastic. I want to put it on everything! PS I am the same way when the hubs mows the lawn, and even more so when he and our sons are outside having a catch. Warm fuzzies!!!
Thank you so much, Allie! I love saving money, so it was my pleasure to share@ Plus I saw a lady purchasing the pre-cleaned tenderloins while I was purchasing the non-cleaned ones. The ones I bought were on sale BOGO. So I got 4 for 6.99. I wanted to slap the ladies hand and tell her to buy the non-cleaned ones and I would just clean them for her! lol. Yes to hubs around the house doing chores! And I can imagine your sons and hubs playing catch outside giving you the fuzzies! Your children are SO cute! Cheers, my dear!
Heeey, Cheyanne, I’m with you on the husband love… nothing like your man taking care of things around the house whether it’s mowing, or fixin, it’s so comforting being taken care of by someone who loves you 😀 . And then a shopping trip too? What fun! But talk about a wardrobe shift! Huge! I hardly know what to do with myself when I travel South because most of my clothes are for much cooler, Northern climates. That compote, girrrrl! Holy Cow!!!
I’m glad you understand what I’m talking about with the husband doing stuff around the house LOVE! And yes, the wardrobe shift has been crazy! I’d still be wearing shorts and tank tops in FL, now i’m wearing boots, jeans, sweaters and scarves! But I have always LOVED fall clothing, so i’m kind of in heaven! Thanks for the love, girlfriend! XO
It was around 30 degrees overnight here on Friday, so I feel your pain! But I’m from Chicago, so unfortunately, I’m used to that! This pork tenderloin sounds like the perfect comfort food for colder weather, Cheyanne! I love the apple cider compote, too. Sounds delish!
I didn’t know you were from Chey-town. lol. 😉 You must be used to the cold AND the wind then! I’m jealous! Thanks so much for the sweet comment, Gayle! Cheers, my dear!
I used to think the combination of pork and apple was a little weird, but then I tried an amazing pork, apple and stuffing baguette and I was sold!
I really need to go shopping for my winter wardrobe, as it’s starting to get really cold here in the UK.
Oh, a pork and apple stuffed baguette sounds fabulous!! I can totally understand why that would get you to try, and like, the combination!! Hope you go shopping soon and stay warm! Cheers, dear!
Cheyanne,
you are so cute! all that about your husband mowing the lawn. . I love it when my hubby does handy work or stuff around the house. . I’m a doer so I love it when my husband is productive! 😛 ok, I love this pork dish!!! Pork doesn’t get enough love if you ask me! and wow!!! yes, Brown Sugar Roasted Pork Tenderloin with Apple Cider-Leek-Bourbon Compote. you’re right! The name says it all!!
😉 Thanks, Alice! What is it about our hubs doing things around the house that makes us all warm and fuzzy with love? I agree, that its probably because most women are “do-ers” and we like when our husbands contribute! I also agree that Pork doesn’t get enough love! Thanks so much for the kind words, my dear! Cheers to a fabulous day!
It was SO damn freezing Sunday AM! We also got down to 32. I had to scrape my windshield. Not cool at all, and I plan on telling everyone how much it sucks.
This looks really good. You know how you don’t eat chocolate? Well, I don’t eat pork. But if I did, this would be the first place I’d go for recipes!
Ewww to scraping windshields!! I hope you tell everyone how much that sucks, let it out and vent, girlfriend! 😉 I know you don’t eat pork because of the whole kosher thing! My memory serves me properly on occasions!! If we ever had dinner together at a party or something and pork and chocolate were on the menu, it would be perfect… we could swap! And you know what, if chocolate wouldn’t kill me, your site would be the first place I would go for chocolatey dessert! Cheers, doll!
You had me at pork spice and sugar! what a great combination of flavors you have going here!, just love this. Great to hear about your shopping spree! hugs
Lol, Thanks Gaila!! Yes to shopping sprees! Hope you pack lots of warm clothes when you and the family visit NC!! Hugs!
You are too cute! No throwing up here at all!! I think it’s adorable! Have fun stocking up on those warm clothing. I’m wearing 3 layers as I type this (yes, inside!). I didn’t have a very satisfying dinner tonight, so this pork is killing me! YUM!! Feel better!
Thank you, Thao! 😉 I’m glad I didn’t make you throw up! I can believe you are wearing 3 layers right now, because I’m wearing 2.. and furry socks. lol. Hope your dinner tonight is more satisfying than last night, girlfriend! Thanks for stopping by and commenting, as I know you have been super busy with your new venture in life! I have been thinking about you and sending positive vibes your way! XO
My boyfriend always asks me to make him pork but I rarely indulge him. This looks so delicious!
You should indulge him, Dani! Not too often though, because you don’t want him to get used to it! 😉 Cheers, lovely and thanks for the comment!
It must be tough to get used to the cold weather when coming from Florida! Love this dish, great flavors! Can’t wait to try it! Hope you feel better, because my cold lasted for about a month 🙁
The weather has definitely been shocking, Mira! But talking to people back home and hearing how its in the mid 80’s… I don’t miss it!! Thank you so much for the sweet comment and the well wishes, girlfriend!! I hope my cold doesn’t last as long as yours- a whole month?? OMG.. poor girlie!! Cheers, my dear – to health!
Here we go! I guess that’s that apple pork recipe you’ve promised? Great work, Chey! This may be not that fancy as my version, but it’s still good. Sorry, couldn’t resist from teasing you! 🙂 It’s really a good hearty stuff. And I’ve never used cider in cooking – shame on me. Love your saving math too. Moreover, if you ever (I still have hope – am I too naive?) send me a parcel, I’m okay with that pork for 6.99.
Lol, You always make me laugh, Ben. Yes, this is the pork I was referring to on your blog! You should totally try cider in cooking, it’s delish! As for sending you a parcel… don’t you know the mail here stinks? I’ll probably get back every package I try to send… which may not be a bad thing. More for me! 😉 Cheers, buddy! <3
We spent the weekend shopping for some fall clothes too since it’s been so chilly around here. This pork tenderloin is the perfect comforting dish to warm up with. And oh my goodness, apple cider bourbon compote? Heck yes!!! I could just drink it up all by itself! Hope you feel better soon too girly!
Yay for shopping for warm clothes!! I don’t know what’s up with the weather, but it is making me nervous for actual winter!! Thanks so much for the sweet comment, Kelly! Cheers to you, my dear! xo
The pork looks so succulent and delicious! I’m loving the apple cider bourbon compote!
Thank you so much, Marsha! Cheers to a fabulous day! 😉
Dang, this looks super yummy!! Apple-Cider-Leek-Bourbon Compote?? Can I put that on everything and add extra bourbon?? Okay, maybe extra bourbon on the side and you are really taking the new house name seriously 🙂 I am fighting a cold too and think it might be the flu. It has zapped the life out of me and I don’t feel like eating anything, except I could eat a whole pork tenderloin of yours right now! Anyhow, had to chuckle when you said you were freezing this weekend because it snowed here a little on Sunday (a few flurries only but it was still snow in mid-oct which is downright ridiculous!) Wish I had this recipe yesterday cos it would have been prefect eating it in front of the lovely fire that we had all day. Stay warm, my foodie BFF. xoxoxoxo
Ha! You can TOTALLY add more bourbon AND put the compote on everything, girlfriend! 😉 I stored the extra compote in the fridge and ate it with a spoon.. so no judgement from me!!! I KNEW you got flurries over the weekend because I stalk my #FoodieBFF 😉 I hope you feel better soon, doll, and that you DON’T have the flu! Maybe you are just allergic to winter coming early!! *ah hem* more the reason to move here and be my neighbor!!! Luhv ya girlie! Feel better! XOXOXOXO
So true! We all love savin money so that we can buy more of our favorite stuff. Indeed SUPER easy video to clean a tenderloin yourself. And this dish is indeed spectacular. So flavorful warm and delish. Lovely share, Cheyanne! 🙂
Yes, to saving money for stuff we love, right!? I need your advice on how to create a stellar video girlfriend, because I wanted to make a video myself on how to clean a tenderloin… but I am SO awkward and uncomfortable in front of a camera!!! Thanks for the sweet comment, my dear! Cheers! 🙂
You are killing me: ” I apologize if I just made you throw up a bit in your mouth.”!!!!!! I started laughing out loud although I was having a rather grumpy mood all day.
I’m so glad I could make you laugh, Adina! I sure hope your day gets better, girlfriend! Cheers to that! 😉
I’ll totally take a boozy, cinnamon-a-fiffic pork loin any day of the week! The last one I made was all boozed up with beer during a home reno meltdown and I totally bought the one in the shrink wrap for $9.99. Now that I’m in a better mood, I may try saving a few bucks. Yay for fall shopping! I was wishing that I had packed a scarf while we were in the mountains.
I KNEW this boozy dish would be A-OK in your book, Rachelle! 🙂 I was going to do the compote with Hard Apple Cider, but I opted for the bourbon instead.. but I know you prefer the beer, and I am willing to bet hard apple cider instead would be just as fab! I will also say, stop spending money on that pre-cleaned stuff! DIY, girlfriend! I’m glad you had fun on your NC mountain trip, but no scarf? REALLY? Tisk tisk. lol. Cheers, my sweets! XO
“This pork tenderloin is sweet and savory with warm, muted fall flavors of cinnamon, ginger and thyme. The outside is scrumptiously caramelized, while the inside is perfectly tender, succulent and juicy.” With a description like this I would be crazy not to run to the store, after putting my cozy sweater and scarf on, and get everything I need for tonight’s dinner! Bravissima!
LOL! I’m glad my description made you hungry and want to run to the store, Annie! That’s a HUGE compliment! YESS, put on the comfy scarf first – you already know I am wearing one as I type this! 😉 Cheers and thanks for the sweet comment, my dear! XO
I’d be needing some new clothes if it was 32 degrees too! We’re in for more 85+ degree days here in California this week, and I’m really hoping it starts to feel like fall soon! This pork looks delicious! I love that you combined apples and leeks in the compote!
You can have a little bit of our cold, for sure, Kristine!! I hope you get your wish and it cools in Cali!! Thanks so much for stopping by and the kind comment, girlie! Cheers!
I love the fall flavours with this pork! The perfect meal served with that gorgeous apple compote! 😀
Thank you so much, Jess!! Cheers to a fabulous day! 😉
We are all sorts of twins today. Pork, cold weather, long titles. Yay yay yay! This looks amazing. And that compote – well, I bet it’s delicious on just about everything in site. XO
YAAASSS to twinning! Funny that you, Taylor AND I all posted a pork recipe today! Let’s me know I am on point, because I bow down to both of your greatness! 😉 I knew you would like the compote, because hellllllo bourbon! Thanks for the love, Liz! XO
Oooo…. a shopping spree. Sounds fun! We lived in the north and the south. First north, then south for 15 years, then north again. By the time we moved back north we had to buy a new wardrobe, because we’d finally gotten rid of all the heavy sweaters, coats etc.that were taking up so much closet space in the south. Timing is everything, huh? LOL. This apple bourbon tenderloin recipe would tasted EXTRA good at the SuBourbon Country Cottage. Not that I’m inviting myself or anything. But it looks absolutely amazing and I must try it! Off to get my oink-oink lovin’ on. Have a beautiful day, beautiful. XO
Shopping sprees area always fun, right?! I knew you had moved a couple times, but dang, I didn’t know you moved that much, Allie! Timing sure is everything! And YES, bourbon consumed IN the SuBourbon Country Cottage is most excellent!! 😉 Thanks so much for the sweet comment, lovely! Cheers – to a beautiful day for you and your family as well! Hope you are feeling better!! XO
Yay for sweaters and scarves! And double yay for this killer pork tenderloin recipe! I have a weird obsession with leeks and am such a bourbon fan that this is screaming at me from my screen. Delicious! Stay warm, feel better and have a great week! XO
I concur- yay for sweaters and pork tenderloin! 😉 I’m obsessed with leeks this time of year, and well, I’m always obsessed with bourbon! Thanks for the sweet comment and the well wishes, doll! XO
I LOVE reading your posts Cheyanne! Besides getting a fabulous recipe, you make me laugh! My husband and I LOVE pork tenderloin, and this one looks delicious! I love the compote! Sounds absolutely yummy! I often buy the pre-packaged tenderloins just because I’m a lazy girl, but now you have convinced me to take a few minutes and do it myself. Have an awesome week!
Thanks, my dear! I love reading your posts too!! It’s easy to buy the trimmed tenderloins and be lazy, but I just look at that price tag and smack my own hand! Plus lots of times (like when I bought these) the untrimmed packages of two were on sale for BOGO. So I got 4 for 6.99. I just trimmed em all and put two in the freezer. Totally worth the effort! Thanks for the sweet comment, lovely lady! Cheers to a beautiful week!
We’re pork tenderloin twinning today! YES!! AND we both have apples. But mine has no bourbon, therefore you win in a MAJOR kinda way! Love this girl!
That we are, Tay! Great bellies crave alike! BUT, I don’t think I win, because yours has apple NOODLES and it’s in TACO form! I say we throw a lil bourbon on yours and call it a win win! 😉 Thanks for making me smile, doll! Cheers! Xo
We spent this weekend getting ready to tailgate, tailgating and then actually going to the Clemson/Boston College game – lots of naughty tailgate food! This pork tenderloin literally looks like autumn perfection on a plate – pinning! Happy Monday!
Sounds like you had a fantastic weekend, Kate! Tailgating and going to the stadium for the game is the best! Clemson was my second choice for college! I watched football Saturday night.. i watched my husband’s team (which is my teams rival) get their butt kicked! So it was awesome. Sill nothing like the actual game though! Thanks so much for the sweet comment, lovely! Cheers to a beautiful day!
