How To Make bacon wrapped stuffed pork tender loin

  • Pork Loin trimmed before it is cut open
    Step 1
    Trim all the fat of the Pork Loin
  • Step 2
    Carefully cut the roast down the center. Filet it best you can. Cover the roast with plastic wrap and pound it out flat with a meat mallet.
  • Step 3
    Mix all the filling ingredients .
  • Step 4
    Cut 3 pieces of cotton string. Lay the roast ontop of the string and spread filling on the roast.
  • Step 5
    Roll the roast up like a jelly roll and tie it up with the 3 pieces of string.
  • Step 6
    salt and pepper the roast and wrap with bacon securing the bacon ontop with toothpicks.
  • Step 7
    We use a charcoal pit with wood for the smokey flavor but it could be on a gas grill also. Place the Bacon goodness on the pit on a med temp for about 2 hours.
  • Step 8
    Make sure your meat is cooked well. You can always finish it off in the oven 175 in a covered pan.
  • Step 9
    Let cook for about 15 min and slice..either with a sharp knife or electric knife....note in the pic it was still a little hot.once it cools off a bit the filling stays in
