How to Make Bacon Wrapped Pork Tenderloin On The Grill Or Broiler
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or your broiler to high.
- Pat the pork tenderloin dry with paper towels.
- If using a marinade (recipe #70178), marinate the pork tenderloin for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight for maximum flavor.
- Wrap the pork tenderloin tightly with bacon slices, securing them with toothpicks if needed.
- Season generously with freshly cracked black pepper (or your preferred seasoning blend).
- For grilling: Place the bacon-wrapped tenderloin on the preheated grill and cook for approximately 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
- For broiling: Place the bacon-wrapped tenderloin on a wire rack set over a baking sheet. Broil for 10-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the bacon is crispy and the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
- Remove from heat and let rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
