      Totally delish! I made this as stated, except I added about a teaspoon of chipotle pepper powder to the salt and pepper used to season the pork on half of it (left one half as is). That added a nice zing to the recipe for us. Both sides were wonderful - the spicier and the sweeter ones were succulent, tender, moist, and delicious. You do have to monitor the heat to make sure the butter and honey don't burn, but this an outstanding recipe, whether you add a zingier spice or not. We're going to freeze the leftovers to make a stew, and we just know it's going to be superb, because the orignal dish was. Great dish, CC - thank you!

      There are no words to describe how good this was!! This will be the ONLY way I cook a pork tenderloin from now on. My whole family raved about it. Thanks for this great recipe!

      I really wanted to like this but it's definitely not our favorite method of preparing pork tenderloin. The honey and butter when cooked made a kind of funky taste for our palates.
      I also followed the directions but our tenderloins were not cooked enough to eat. We had to sear the slices to feel comfortable eating it and serving it to our children. We don't have a problem with pinkish pork but this was way pinker than edible.
      I think we'll stick to garlic, rosemary and olive oil for this cut of meat!
