Best Answer

The tenderloin is an especially tender yet infrequently used cut of meat. Its tenderness comes from the fact that muscles closer to the spine are exercised less frequently than other muscles and are therefore more tender.

It is located under the breast of the chicken and is weakly attached to the breast meat. It is long and slender with dimensions and size comparable to a finger.

The loin or psoas muscle in the beef is present on either side of the lumbar vertebrae

It is not really a weight bearing muscle,rather it supports the trunk lying along the spinous processes. Since it is non-weight bearing and somewhat stretchable it does not require much connective tissue content. Connective tissue is fibrous and tough,the loin is among the tenderest portion of the entire beef.It is commonly called top loin and tenderloin [or filet mignon]You will know which when you pay for it
