Ingredients

• 2 ounces pork tenderloins trimmed (or alternatively one larger tenderloin)
• 4 servings kosher salt

Directions

1. Sprinkle tenderloins with salt and pepper.
2. Place in a bowl or shallow dish. Cover, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
3. Meanwhile soak toothpicks in water and prepare a gas or charcoal grill for medium-high, indirect grilling (variation: soak some applewood chips to add just before cooking)
4. Wrap bacon slices around pork, securing with toothpicks.
5. Place on grill and brown for a few minutes, covered. Baste with some maple syrup and continue to grill for about 20-25 minutes, turning and basting occasionally with the maple syrup.
