Bacon Wrapped Pork Loin Recipes

SWEET BACON WRAPPED PORK LOIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a shallow roasting pan with aluminum foil.
• Season pork loin with salt and pepper. Wrap the bacon slices around the pork loin and secure with toothpicks. Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat, then add the pork loin. Cook until golden brown on all sides, about 10 minutes, then place onto roasting pan. Stir together honey, balsamic vinegar, red wine, onion, and rosemary in a small bowl; spread over pork loin.
• Roast the pork loin in preheated oven for 15 minutes, then sprinkle with raisins. Continue cooking until the internal temperature of the pork loin reaches 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), about 15 minutes more. Remove from the oven, and allow to rest for 5 minutes before removing toothpicks and slicing.

BACON-WRAPPED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Lay the bacon onto a rimmed baking sheet lined with a baking rack. Bake until the bacon has rendered some of its fat but is still completely flexible and hasn't begun to brown, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool 5 minutes. Raise the oven temperature to 450 degrees F.
• Generously sprinkle the tenderloin with salt and black pepper.
• In a small bowl, stir together the mustard, brown sugar, garlic powder and cayenne. Coat the tenderloin all over with the mixture.
• Starting at one end, wrap the bacon strips around the tenderloin, overlapping them slightly so they are shingled.
• Place the tenderloin on the baking rack and roast until 130 degrees F at the thickest point, about 17 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes, then transfer to a cutting board using a long offset spatula and tongs. Slice into 1-inch-thick rounds and serve.

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Season tenderloin with thyme, salt, pepper, and rosemary leaves. Wrap bacon around the tenderloin and secure with toothpicks. Sprinkle garlic powder over the bacon, then pack brown sugar around the tenderloin.
• Cook in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), 35 to 40 minutes.

BACON-WRAPPED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place a sheet pan in the oven to preheat.
• Slice the pork tenderloin lengthwise, so it will open like a book, being careful to not cut all the way through. Open the loin and gently pound with a meat mallet until it is an even thickness and rectangular in shape.
• Sprinkle the meat with salt and pepper. Spread the cream cheese in an even layer on the meat, leaving a 1/2 inch of pork uncovered around the edges. Spread the pesto on top of the cream cheese, then sprinkle on the pine nuts and sundried tomatoes. Top with an even layer of spinach. Starting on one of the longer sides of your rectangle, roll the meat closed into a long tube and set aside.
• Place a piece of plastic wrap on a flat surface and lay out the bacon so the slices overlap slightly. Lay the rolled pork tenderloin at one end of the bacon strip arrangement, seam-side down. Using the plastic wrap, roll the bacon up and around the meat.
• Using butcher's twine, tie around the bacon at 2-inch intervals along the length of the roll, so that the bacon cannot come loose during cooking. Tuck the meat closed on both ends and secure with toothpicks.
• Place the pork, seam-side down, on the heated sheet pan and roast until the bacon is browned and the pork is cooked, about 45 minutes. Let the pork rest for a few minutes before slicing.

• Slice pork loin lengthwise, but not all the way through, so you can still open it up.
• Prepare stuffing and stuff into sliced pork loin.
• Sprinkle top of pork loin with rosemary, thyme, salt & pepper.
• Wrap pork loin with uncooked bacon slices.
• Bake in oven until meat thermometer reaches 155F when inserted to the thickest part of the meat (where it's still attached on the side) approx one and a half hours.
• Tent with foil for 5-10 minutes and slice.

BACON WRAPPED CINNAMON PORK LOIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350*F Heat the peanut oil in a small skillet over medium heat.

• Transfer to a bowl to cool.
• Add the onion, cilantro, mint, sesame oil and cinnamon to bowl and stir to blend.
• Rub this mixture all over the pork loin.
• Roll the pork loin into a cylinder, tying in places to keep it closed and uniform.
• Season with salt and white pepper; wrap the bacon slices around the meat.
• Place the pork on a roasting rack, set in a medium roasting pan and roast for 50 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted in the center registers 150*F.
• Transfer to a warm platter and let rest for 10 minutes.
• Note that the meat will continue to cook while it rests.
• Slice the pork into 1/4 inch slices and serve.
