However, my eyes were opened to new possibilities when I recently had pork fries on a trip with some friends, and oh man, you are going to love these!

How to make Pork Tenderloin Fries.
- Prepare pork tenderloin by cutting into thin strips. The size will vary depending on how you slice up the tenderloin.
- It is easiest to cut the tenderloin into 3 equal sections and cut into 1/8-1/4 inch thick strips. These should end up looking like french fries.
- Whisk together egg and buffalo sauce and set aside. In a large mixing bowl, add flour and buffalo seasoning and set aside. In another bowl, add breadcrumbs and set aside.
- Dredge pork strips in flour, coat with egg mixture and toss in breadcrumbs.
- Add oil to a large skillet until it is about 1/4-1/2 inch deep – enough to cover the pork tenderloin completely. Heat oil in over medium heat. Gently place 8-10 pork fries into oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. After the first batch, reduce the heat to medium-low.
- Fry approximately 1 1/2 minutes per side until golden brown and crisp, and the internal temperature of pork is at least 145 degrees F.
- Remove from pan and place on paper towels. Repeat until all pork fries are fried.
