How long do you grill a 2lb pork tenderloin?
Pork tenderloin and chicken breasts are my most dependable items for grilling. In both cases, I tell my wife it will take 23 minutes though I don't time them and that's never the time. I check doneness using my barbeque fork.
Here's the process. heat the grills until the barbeque thermometer reads 375 - 400. Place the oiled and seasoned pork or chicken onto the grill for about 1 - 2 minutes, lid closed. Turn the meat and grill for 1 - 2 minutes on the other side (shorter for smaller pieces). Next, turn off all but the front or far-side burner and place the meat on the high rack at the back or side away from the "on" burner. Touch the meat lightly (don't pierce) with the fork; it will feel squishy. Turn the burner to low so the closed barbeque reaches 330 - 370 and allow the meat to cook slowly for 12 - 15 minutes. Pour yourself a bit more wine. after the 12 - 15 minutes, do the fork-check again. You will find the meat firmer. Continue the cooking, checking every 4-5 minutes, until there is no more "squishiness". Remove from heat; cover with foil for 3-5 minutes; cut 1/2 inch slices on an angle and serve. Family and guests will exclaim about the moistness and tenderness. Enjoy the meat and the praise!
What part of a pig does bacon come from?
It's the belly,it's usually salted or smoked
Bacon is prepared from several different cuts of meat. It is usually made from side and back cuts of pork, except in the United States, where it is almost always prepared from pork belly (typically referred to as "streaky", "fatty", or "American style" outside of the US). The side cut has more meat and less fat than the belly. Bacon may be prepared from either of two distinct back cuts: fatback, which is almost pure fat, and pork loin, which is very lean. Bacon-cured pork loin is known as back bacon.
I'm not entirely sure what you mean by your question, so I will answer it in the way I assume you're asking it. Pork brains are simply pig's brains that have been cleaned and prepared by cooking. Most often they are boiled, and served with gravy. You can also purchase them in a can, with the gravy already mixed in. They are also popular cooked, and then mixed into scrambled eggs, with or without gravy. While the brains are low in fat (approx. 2.5g per serving) they are extremely high in cholesterol (approx. 3190mg per serving). But, they do contain Vitamin C and Iron. They can be dangerous to eat, if not prepared correctly. You definitely want to be sure they are thoroughly cooked, as if they are undercooked, you could potentially get worms.

How long will it take to cook a 9.75 lb pork butt at 275 degrees?
If it's a tenderloin roast, you can figure about an hour to an hour and fifteen minutes. If it's a thicker cut, give it another half hour. I'd crank the heat up a little bit, though. If you can, go to 375 to give it a nice roasted outer coating. Two and a half pounds isn't a lot; make sure you watch it every fifteen minutes or so while it roasts so you catch it before it gets dried out.
