Pig On Pig: Bacon Wrapped Pork Tenderloin Recipe

Update (11/7/16): This pork tenderloin recipe was originally published June 6th, 2015. It is one of our favorite dinner recipes, so we decided to update the post with new photos and a video. We hope you enjoy!

It’s hard to believe that we’ve had this blog for almost 6 months now. Time flies when you’re stuffing your face, apparently.

I was looking at our recipes and realized there was a severe lack of pork. I can take care of that, no problem! Let’s put pork on some more pork!

This was my first time making pork tenderloin myself and I was overjoyed with how well it turned out. The marinade is the perfect mixture of tangy/sweet and when it combines with the salty, crispy bacon and the melt-in-you-mouth tenderloin, your taste buds will sing praises on high!

Though this marinade makes enough for three bacon wrapped pork tenderloins, I have sometimes only made one when it is just the two of us. If you do make extra, have no fear, this is one of the best and easiest recipes to reheat. Just put it back in the oven at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes, or until the desired temperature is reached.
