Bbqd Bacon Wrapped Pork Fillet Recipes

BACON WRAPPED BBQ PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°.
• Rub tenderloin with bbq rub then wrap with bacon slices using toothpicks to secure ends.
• Bake in a glass dish for 1 hour, on the middle rack, flipping tenderloin half way through (so the bacon doesn't get soggy).
• Turn oven to broil (staying at 350°) move pan to bottom rack and broil 20 minutes, turning tenderloin half way through.
• When tenderloin reaches and internal temperature of 155°-160° move dish back to middle rack, and paint tenderloin with bbq sauce. Broil for 5 minutes, then flip tenderloin, paint other side, and broil another 5 minutes.
• Let rest 5-10 minutes then slice into medallions, serve with bbq sauce.

BACON-WRAPPED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH APPLE STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Stir together mustard and maple syrup in a small bowl.
• Pat pork tenderloin dry. Without cutting all the way through, slice the tenderloin lengthwise and open like a book. Spread mustard mixture evenly over the inside and outside of the tenderloin, then season with salt and pepper.
• Place apple slices on one side of the tenderloin. Spread onions on top of the apples and sprinkle with thyme. Close the tenderloin, tucking apples and onions inside.
• Line up bacon slices in a rectangle shape on a sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil, with each piece overlapping slightly. Place the stuffed tenderloin across the top ends of the bacon. Use the foil to lift the tenderloin and start to roll it like a jellyroll until it's completely wrapped with bacon.
• Secure both ends of the tenderloin and each bacon slice with a wooden toothpick. Use the foil to lift the tenderloin into a 9x13-inch baking pan. Spread out the foil to protect the pan from drippings.
• Cook in the preheated oven until slightly pink in the center, about 20 minutes, turning halfway through. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).
• Remove from the oven and let rest until internal temperature has risen to 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), 5 to 10 minutes.

GRILLED BACON-WRAPPED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Light grill for INDIRECT grilling. Front/back burners. Trim silverskin tendon from each tenderloin. Lightly sprinkle each with a half tsp of seasoning.
• Starting at one end, spiral wrap the bacon around each tenderloin, securing each piece with a toothpick. Lightly sprinkle each with remaining 1/2 tsp seasoning.
• Place on center of grill off of direct heat, reduce heat to medium. Turn each tenderloin a quarter turn every 15 minutes. Grill for one hour or until bacon is crispy and done. Move to direct heat the last 15 minutes if necessary. Remove toothpicks before slicing.
• Slice into 1/4" medallions and serve with baked beans and grilled potatoes.

BACON WRAPPED PORK MEDALLIONS

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place the bacon in a large, oven-safe skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until lightly browned and still flexible, 6 to 7 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate. Remove any excess bacon grease from the skillet. Combine garlic powder, seasoning salt, basil, and oregano in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Wrap the pork tenderloin with the bacon strips securing with 1 or 2 toothpicks per strip of bacon. Slice the tenderloin between each bacon strip to create the medallions. Dip both sides of the medallions in seasoning mix. Melt butter and oil together in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Cook each medallion for 4 minutes on each side.
• Place skillet into the preheated oven and bake until the pork is no longer pink in the center, 17 to 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

BACON-WRAPPED BARBECUE PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. Line 15x10x1-inch pan with heavy-duty foil; spray foil with cooking spray.
• Microwave bacon between layers of microwavable paper towels on microwavable plate 3 to 4 minutes or just until edges begin to brown but are still soft and pliable. Cut each piece in half crosswise.
• Season tenderloins with salt and pepper; place in pan. Arrange bacon pieces diagonally over top of pork, pressing bacon over sides.
• In small bowl, mix barbecue sauce, chipotle chile and cumin. Brush tops of each tenderloin with glaze. Bake tenderloins 30 to 35 minutes or until meat thermometer inserted in center of pork reads 145°F. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing.

BBQD BACON-WRAPPED PORK FILLET

Steps:

• Place the pork fillet into a shallow dish. Brush with melted butter and sprinkle with dried sage and chopped garlic. Pour the roasted garlic alfredo sauce over the meat, cover and refrigerate for four hours or preferably over night.
• Cut each of the slices of bacon into halves lengthwise. Plait these strips around the pork in a criss-cross pattern. Reserve the marinade for heating and serving with the pork.
• Cook the bacon wrapped pork fillet on a heated barbecue on a medium heat for approximately 30 minutes or until the pork is cooked through, turning halfway through cooking.
• Place the remaining marinade into a small saucepan and bring to the boil. Lower the heat, add 1/4 cup of wine and simmer for an extra minute and serve with the sliced pork as a sauce.
• Notes: The original recipe specified Leggo's Stir Through Sauce - Roasted Tomato & Bacon, but Zaar was unable to recognise this as an ingredient. The closest acceptable ingredient I could find was roasted garlic alfredo sauce. Use whatever equivalent to one of these is available in your region. The pork can be cooked in a conventional oven at 180ºC for 40 minutes or in an outdoor kettle oven following manufacturer's weight for cooking time.
