Recipe

• 1 marinate tenderloins in nick's awesome lamb tenderloin marinade as directed or sprinkle tenderloins lightly with seasoned pepper.
• 2 wrap tenderloins with bacon slices, securing with toothpicks.
• 3 preheat right-side burners set to medium or use regular grill with coals set to one side.
• 4 with drip-pan (we use throw-away small aluminum pan) place lamb loins over indirect heat. or, place on broiling pan and broil in oven.
• 5 grill covered, turning every so often until bacon is brown and cooked on all sides.
• 6 when bacon is cooked and brown lamb tenderloins should be done -- usually in 20 to 30 minutes. recommended internal temperature is 155 dg., but we've never bought one!
