Bacon Wrapped Pork Tenderloin
This dinner couldn’t be easier…season, wrap, roast.
With just a few ingredients you can prepare a bacon wrapped pork tenderloin that is moist, tender, and creates it’s own sauce as it roasts. The fresh rosemary is essential to
the flavor of this meal and it fills your home with the aroma’s of fresh herbs and bacon. The roasted chicken seasoning by Famous Dave’s is free of any allergens and full of flavorful spices. Be careful with other products by Famous Dave’s as some of them are not gluten free.

Be sure to use regular thin sliced bacon and not the thick cut as it won’t become crispy. The pan juices are great drizzled over the top of entire roast before serving (as I did) or you can make a pan sauce with the drippings if you have time…it would be so good. Serve with your favorite potatoes and green beans for an easy delicious dinner.

Ingredients:
- 1 pork tenderloin, silver skin removed (1-1.5 lbs)
- 2 Tbsp Famous Daves Country Roasted Chicken Seasoning (or your favorite seasoning salt)
- 1 ½ Tbsp fresh chopped Rosemary
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 6 strips of center cut bacon – don’t use thick cut bacon
- Fresh ground black pepper
- Olive oil
Directions:
Grind seasonings together with mortar and pestle to combine and rosemary is crushed into the other seasonings.
Rub the seasoning over entire pork tenderloin until all areas are coated, you will probably have extra and can store in sealed container for another time. Wrap the tenderloin with pieces of center cut bacon, securing with toothpicks. Place in a shallow roasting dish and coat both sides of the bacon wrapped tenderloin with fresh ground black pepper Sprinkle olive oil over top.
Roast in 375 degree oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour (depending on size of tenderloin), or until the bacon is crisp. Remove and let sit for 15 minutes under tented foil before slicing. Drizzle pan juices over top and serve.
