My entire family loved this. Next time, I will make twice as much!

Heat your oven to 375°F (190°C) before using it.

Remove any extra fat and thin membrane from the pork tenderloin.

In a little bowl, combine brown sugar, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.

Spread the mix of spices all over the pork tenderloin.

Put the bacon slices around the tenderloin and use toothpicks to hold the ends together if needed.

Warm olive oil in a skillet that can be used in the oven on medium heat. Once the pan is hot, put the pork tenderloin in and cook on all sides until the bacon is crunchy, which should take around 5-7 minutes.

Put the pan in the oven that has been preheated and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the pork inside reaches a temperature of 145°F (63°C).

Take it out of the oven and allow it to sit for 5 minutes before cutting.

Serve and have fun!

Different Types and Advice

To make it a little spicy, sprinkle a bit of cayenne pepper onto the spice mix. If someone in your family is a picky eater and doesn’t like mustard, you can skip it, and the meal will still taste great. You can also try using different spices, like a bit of rosemary or thyme, to give your dish a natural taste. For a stronger flavor, try using thick slices of bacon smoked with hickory.
