2 Tbsp. Heavy creamÂ
1 teaspoon Sea salt and fresh pepper
Fresh rosemary sprigs

-
Preheat the oven to 375° F and prepare a baking tray with parchment paper. Set it aside.
- Mix the honey, mustard and heavy cream in a small bowl. Set it aside.
-
Season the pork liberally with salt and pepper.
-
Wrap the tenderloin from tip to tip in bacon and place it in the prepared baking pan.
-
Brush the bacon with the prepared honey mustard mixture and then arrange rosemary leaves around it.

Bake it until the tenderloin is cooked through. Baking time may vary, depending on the oven used and tenderloin size. For reference my tenderloin was 1 ½ lbs and took 45 minutes to be juicy and evenly cooked.
This is the best way to cook a pork tenderloin. The bacon keeps the juices in and renders fat down onto the pork as it’s cooking, just DO NOT secure the bacon with toothpicks, it will leak out those juices and the pork will be very dry (talking from experience here). You can’t go wrong with this dish.
