Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Trim any excess fat and silver skin from the pork tenderloin.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
Rub the spice mixture all over the pork tenderloin.
Wrap the bacon slices around the tenderloin, securing the ends with toothpicks if necessary.
Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the pork tenderloin and sear on all sides until the bacon is crispy, about 5-7 minutes.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C).
Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Serve and enjoy!
Variations & Tips
For a bit of heat, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the spice rub. If you have a picky eater who isn’t fond of mustard, you can leave it out, and the dish will still be delicious. You can also experiment with different seasonings, such as adding a touch of rosemary or thyme for an earthy flavor. For a smokier taste, consider using thick-cut hickory-smoked bacon.
