    This super flavorful Bacon-Wrapped Pork Tenderloin will make you feel like a hero in the kitchen, even if you don't feel that confident.

    Bacon Wrapped Pork Tenderloin is fancy enough for company.

    *Disclaimer - This recipe was originally published in 2014. I'm working hard to update all my older recipes with recipe cards, new photos, and additional recipe information. But, getting to all of them will take time. Please bear with me. In the meantime let me assure you that this recipe is still a winner and one I'm sure you'll be well pleased with when you make it at home.

    If you're looking for an easy family meal that can also do double duty as impressive company fare, look no further. This Bacon Wrapped Pork Tenderloin is wonderfully moist and flavorful and is super easy to prepare, which will free you up for relaxing before dinner with your feet up or spending quality time visiting with your guests.

    Marinated for a least 2 hours before cooking in a combination of balsamic vinegar and maple syrup this pork tenderloin is incredibly flavorful and tender and has a lovely sweet, vinegary tang that plays so well with savory and mildly salty bacon wrapping.

    After slicing, make sure you drizzle the pork with a little additional maple syrup and you'll be in a kind of pork tenderloin heaven that will impress the heck out of your family and friends!

      This looks and sounds fabulous! We have pork tenderloin quite often but eat it plain with some chutney. I will definitely be giving this a try!
