This recipe was a disappointment. The pork tenderloin was tough and the spices were bland. I will not be making this again.

The pork tenderloin was a little dry, but the flavors were still good. I think I will try cooking it for a shorter amount of time next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the pork tenderloin turned out perfectly. It was cooked evenly and the spices were delicious. I served it with roasted vegetables and mashed potatoes.

This recipe was a hit with my family! The pork tenderloin was juicy and flavorful, and the Southwestern spices gave it a nice kick. I will definitely be making this again.
