What is a Breaded Pork Tenderloin Sandwich?
The breaded pork tenderloin sandwich (BPT) is an iconic Midwest comfort food featuring a pounded, breaded, and deep-fried pork cutlet served on a bun. Often much larger than the bread itself, these sandwiches are beloved for their crispy golden exterior and tender, juicy meat inside.
Originating in Indiana, the BPT has become a regional treasure enjoyed throughout the Midwest and beyond. Our directory helps you find the best examples of this classic American sandwich.

Given the history and being Indiana’s first ever BPT offering… I had to give this one a try while passing through town. This was actually a very strong offering, and I’m glad I decided to give it a try. I was pleasantly surprised and can say with confidence that this is an upper level tenderloin. Breading consistency and texture were great. The flavor was very good, quality of meat was good, and size was more than fair. There really wasn’t much this sandwich was lacking, and I highly recommend this one. I don’t know that I can say this was the best I’ve had, but it’s certainly a very strong tenderloin I would consider to be upper echelon in this state. Well done, Nick’s Kitchen…

Great atmosphere inside this place. The BPT was fresh and of good quality. Tender and juicy on the inside with nicely seasoned breading. The bun was lightly toasted. The fries are hand cut in house. Fries were evenly seasoned nicely. Overall opinion is this is a good quality tendy served inside a really spot.

Stopped by the Dairy Master in Loogootee for a quick BPT. It’s an old school Tastee Freez vibe ice cream type restaurant. The tenderloin was big and pounded out thin. The breading was very crispy. Felt like the seasoning was only salt and pepper. The price was right, though... $9 including a small ff.
I don’t need them to be giant sized so the size was fine. I do like them a tad thicker but the flavor and crispness was very very good! For $5.34, can’t beat it for the price! My wife and I also split some onion rings which were also very good. 1st time I’ve been I can’t believe how small it is but what a very cool joint!
It's $10 tenderloin Tuesday!!!
It was exceptional in every way. Definitely top 5 on my list. I am very critical of how most tenderloins are prepared, but this was truly delicious!
