How long does unfrozen pork tenderloin last?

Question

Ive left it out to thaw for longer then I probably should (or think I should). Its been out for over a day. I need to clean my oven because I almost caught the house on fire and will cook it ASAP. Whats the longevity on these guys? Its a Hormel packaged pork tenderloin.

Answer 1

If it still in the vacuum package, it will be good for a week or more.  There should be a use by date on the package.  Even if you did not have it in that air tight package, one day thawed in your fridge won't hurt anything.  

You could always pop it into your crock pot with some onion, garlic, salt and pepper and a few bay leaves and a nice can of beer and let it cook for about 8 hours.while you are cleaning that oven and then supper would be done when you are.

Answer 2

If you left it out on the counter for that long I wouldn't risk eating it.  Throw it away...it isn't worth the risk of getting sick from eating it.
