      I almost did a spit take when I saw that huge $9.99 number. Then I realized that it was in CAD and per kg, which works out to be cheaper than it is here in the Southeast US (about $4 USD / lb), LOL!

      Still kinda think a pressure cooker is overkill for a tenderloin that would cook up just fine with a dry cooking method (roasting or pan-grilling, like a steak) though. With your pressure cooker method, you could save $2 CAD / kg (plus an extra $5 off) getting regular loin and it would turn out just as good.

        I cut about 1/3 off the undesirable end for the roast, the majority is for chops. It’s more to break up the monotony of that if that make sense.

        Don’t always have the time for low and slow and try not to keep too many different variety’s in the freezer. I know there is ways to pinch a few more pennies if needed ;)

        Edit, actually now that I look at the link, that’s the one we usually get, but it’s not always available. We’ve been forced to get the tendorloin lately. Sometimes even the 2 pack, which are smaller ones.
