Pre-marinated Pork Loin question

GrillinSailor · December 2014

Does anyone have any experience with grocery store marinated pork loins, or pre-marinated anything?

I have a fear these are items that haven't sold and so they cover the fact by dousing them in teriaki, bbq, or lemon herb marinade.

Are these good or should I be afraid of them?

I've done them raised direct at 350-375 and they are an easy, great meal. I usually pull them a little warmer than other pork, same concern. Like 150-155 IT. Enjoy!

I've never egged one, but the wife used to buy them and cook inthe kitchen clock. No body died or even puked, but you can do better on your own with saice and rubs.

I have had good luck the few times I have had them...they look prepackaged to me and cryovaced

But I agree with @theyolksonyou‌ and you can do much better on your own

SWMBO has bought these too many times. I finally told her, in the famous words of Samuel L Jackson, (regarding his thoughts of snakes on the muthaf*ckin' plane) "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!"

They suck. They are over marinated. They're too salty and taste like school lunch meat. My opinion, avoid them and buy fresh meat that isn't treated with chemicals.
