About Northside Bar & Grill
Northside Bar and Grill on N McKinley Ave in Rensselaer, Indiana calls its tenderloin The Hammered Hog — hand-cut, pounded, tenderized, and cooked to order in beef tallow fryers, a preparation the kitchen credits for a distinct flavor difference that separates it from standard oil-fried tenderloins. Smalltownindiana named it one of the state's Top Ten tenderloins, a recognition that carries real weight in Indiana tenderloin circles. Tuesdays are the dedicated tenderloin day with a $10 meal deal alongside the full-sized sandwich option.
