Ingredients
Scale
- 1.1–1.1 kg pork tenderloin
- 60 ml dry pork rub
- 16 slices bacon
- 225 g broccoli, finely diced
- 115 g cream cheese, softened
- 170 g shredded cheddar cheese, divided
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 60 ml honey mustard dressing
- 150 g cherry tomatoes, diced
- 2 green onions, diced
Instructions
- Ignite charcoal and allow it to heat until ashed over, suitable for indirect grilling.
- Slice tenderloin into 8 equal pieces. Butterfly each portion by cutting through the side without separating fully.
- Lay each butterflied pork piece flat, cover with wax paper, and gently pound with a meat mallet to an even thickness.
- Evenly sprinkle pork medallions on both sides with dry rub.
- Mix softened cream cheese, diced broccoli, and 85 g shredded cheddar in a bowl. Season with black pepper.
- Divide cheese and broccoli mixture over one side of each pork piece. Fold to enclose filling and wrap each parcel with 2 bacon slices.
- Arrange hot charcoal to one side for indirect cooking. Confirm grill temperature is approximately 120°C.
- Place wrapped pork on the cool side of the grill. Close lid and cook for 90 minutes, or until pork reaches 63°C internal temperature.
- Brush each pork portion with honey mustard dressing, top with remaining cheddar, close lid, and melt cheese for 1–2 minutes.
- Plate pork bundles and garnish with diced cherry tomatoes and green onions. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Ensure the pork is at an internal temperature of 63°C for safe consumption.
- Feel free to adjust the cheese and vegetable filling according to your taste preferences.
- Using indirect grilling helps to evenly cook the pork without burning the bacon.
