why bacon on pork tenderloin? what is the purpose?
The fat from the bacon keeps the pork moist and of course also adds good flavor.

I use bacon when baking a whole chicken. It makes it come out so juicy. Just remove the bacon when the chicken is almost done so the chicken will brown.

Pork tenderloin and chicken breasts are very low in fat, so when you cook them, they can dry out and become sort of rubbery. Wrapping these meats in bacon adds the needed fat to keep the meat moist.
