Are Pork Loin and Pork Tenderloin the SAme?

No, pork loin and pork tenderloin come from different parts of the animal, making them two very different cuts of meat.

Pork loin is a wide and fat cut from the back of the animal and is a bit cheaper in price.

Pork tenderloin is lean and tender. It comes from a muscle that runs along the backbone, and it can be a pricier cut of meat. If you have pork tenderloin, try this air fryer pork tenderloin recipe.
