Bacon helps lock in juices in otherwise lean pork tenderloin. Rosemary infuses it with flavour. For the best taste, choose unseasoned tenderloins.

Ingredients
Method
Cut each tenderloin into 6 rounds; wrap 1 piece of bacon around side of each round. Poke metal skewer through bacon and pork through to other side; remove skewer. Thread rosemary sprig through hole, extending out opposite side.Thread 3 pork pieces, perpendicular to rosemary, onto each of 6 metal skewers. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.)
Stir together mustard, vinegar, oil, salt and pepper; brush over flat sides of pork. Broil on greased rimmed baking sheet, 8 inches (20 cm) from heat, turning once, until juices run clear when pork is pierced and just hint of pink remains inside, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to platter; pour pan juices over top.
Tip from The Test Kitchen: To grill kabobs, place them on a greased grill over medium-high heat; close the lid and grill until the juices run clear when the pork is pierced and just a hint of pink remains inside the meat, 16 to 18 minutes.
