Ingredients

1 Package Bacon, Thick Cut

1/4 Cup Maple Syrup

1 Trimmed with Silver Skin Removed Pork, Tenderloin

3 Tbsp Louisiana Grills Black Label Rub

2 Tbsp Olive Oil

Special Tools

Small Mixing Bowl

Directions

With the forced fan convection cooking of a pellet grill, pork tenderloin on the grill can be cooked with the same controlled, indirect heat many enjoy in the oven. Only with a pellet grill, there is the added benefit of cooking outside.

With this recipe, it takes about 15 minutes at 350°F and another 15 at 400°F for a total of 30 minutes. An easy dish with abundant flavors.

After being wrapped in bacon, the tenderloin is brush with maple syrup, olive oil, and Black Label Rub for a tangy, sweet and savory glaze.

Lay the strips of bacon out flat, with each strip slightly overlapping the other. Sprinkle the pork tenderloin with 1 tablespoon of the Black Label Rub and lay in the center. Wrap with bacon over the tenderloin and tuck in the ends.

In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, maple syrup and remaining seasoning together and brush onto the wrapped tenderloin.

Preheat your Louisiana Grill to 350°F. When the grill is ready, place your tenderloin on the grill and cook, turning, for 15 minutes, then increase the grill temperature to 400°F and grill for another 15 minutes or until the internal temperature is 145°F. Serve and enjoy!
