This is one dinner that Micahel loves to help assemble up, he loves to stick the toothpick in the food!!! Wrapping the bacon can be tricky but using food skewers instead of toothpicks it works out great!! Michael loves to call the maple syrup in this his secret ingredient.

Most recently my Fred Meyer had a $.99/lb pork sale and I stocked up on the max. That meant cutting down my own sizes and roasts but it was worth the savings in the long run! I decide to re-whip this up that night because it had been a while since we had it!

This looks so delicious. I am always looking for ways to cook a tenderloin I would not have thought to use bacon! My kids are in the kitchen helping make meals all the time too, it is amazing what kids can do if you give them the chance to!! Pinning over for future use. Have a blessed week!!

I’ve been needing a good recipe for this and I’m sure I just found it!
Sherry says
What size tenderloin?
Jenny says
I cut mine out of a large one. You want it to be kinda longer and thinner so the bacon can wrap easily around it, and also so it cooks faster. They do sell pre-cut ones that work great for this in the meat departments here.
