If you want to cook a loin to 170 degrees medium, at what temp should you remove from egg. (I understand it cooks internally off egg but how much). Thanks

    Whammer,[p]I'd say 165*, but I generally take pork loins off at 140*-145*. Expect about a 5* rise if you simply tent or loosely wrap and and let the loin rest for 12-20 minutes.[p]Good eats.[p]Paul[p]

  • Whammer,
    ditto on PapaQ's post - 170 degrees is okay if you want shoe leather....if you want tender, fuggedabout the USDA recommended temps printed on your thermometer and take the bad boys off somewhere between 140 and 150.
