I find it hard to resist anything mini-sized, although I’ve found that anything made mini-size is usually twice the work. That’s not the case with these cute little pork sliders. They actually go together fairly quickly with the help of a pre-marinated pork tenderloin. And, tenderloin cut is the perfect size to fit on the slider buns.
Tenderloin roasts up fairly quickly too. Cook in a 425 degree oven for 35-40 minutes. Be sure to let is rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Slice the tenderloin into 3/4 inch thick pieces and place on slider buns.
Top with coleslaw and the top of the bun, then serve.
