Bacon-Wrapped Pork Tenderloin on the Grill or Broiler
We love this easy grilling recipe, and so does everyone we serve it to. We usually marinate it in Recipe #70178, but also have made the basic grilling method with no marinade, sprinkling the tenderloins with seasoned black pepper. These can also be placed on a rack and broiled in the oven. (Note: Cooking time does not include marinating time.)
Ingredients
4 serv.- pork tenderloin2
1 -1 1/2 lb each
- thick sliced bacon↗1⁄4 - 1⁄3 lb
Step-by-step instructions
- 1
Marinate tenderloins in Recipe #70178 as directed or sprinkle tenderloins lightly with seasoned pepper.
- 2
Wrap tenderloins with bacon slices, securing with toothpicks.
- 3
Preheat right-side burners set to medium or use regular grill with coals set to one side.
- 4
With drip-pan (we use throw-away small aluminum pan) place pork loins over indirect heat. OR, place on broiling pan and broil in oven.
- 5
Grill covered, turning every so often until bacon is brown and cooked on all sides.
- 6
When bacon is cooked and brown pork tenderloins should be done -- usually in 20 to 30 minutes. Recommended internal temperature is 155 dg., but we've never bought one!

After meat is done, remove and let rest for 5 minutes. Remove toothpicks and cut in 1" to 1 1/2" slices and serve, still wrapped in bacon.
