Pork Tenderloin With Strawberry Sauce Recipe.
What do you do with a lean cut of meat like pork tenderloin? Wrap it in bacon! You’ll get a juicier overall experience and a crispy outside – not to mention all that bacon flavor. Just to make absolutely sure you don’t dry out the tenderloin, it’s also a good idea to cook it over indirect heat – set the coals blazing in one part of the grill, and then cook the tenderloin over a different part, so the heat isn’t quite so intense.
