Ingredients
1/2pork tenderloin
5stripsgood quality bacon
1/2cupbarbecue sauce
2tsp vegetable oil
Instructions
Lay a 12-inch piece of plastic wrap on your cutting board.
Place the bacon on the plastic wrap, overlapping the pieces.
Place the pork tenderloin on the bacon and wrap using plastic wrap to lift the bacon. Grap the end of the wrap and twist to tighten. Let sit for 10 minutes or put in the fridge for up to 2 days.
Heat your oven to 375°f.
Put a pan on the stove on medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot add the vegetable oil. Take the pork out of the plastic wrap and place in the hot pan with the ends of the bacon down. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until the bacon is browned. Then repeat on all sides.
Take the bacon out of the pan, and put it in a small roasting pan. Brush with half of the barbecue sauce and put in the oven for 12 minutes.
Take the pork out of the oven, flip, and brush with the remaining sauce. Return the pork to the oven for another 8 to 10 minutes or until it is cooked.
Let the pork rest for 5 minutes, then thinly slice on a slight bias and serve.
