Pecan-Crusted Pork Tenderloin Pinwheels with Carolina Mustard Sauce

These pecan-crusted pork tenderloin pinwheels are a fantastic choice for those seeking a sophisticated yet simple dairy-free main course. The combination of succulent pork and salty bacon creates a wonderful depth of flavour, while the finely chopped pecans provide a satisfyingly crisp texture. Finished with a tangy Carolina mustard sauce, this dish offers a beautiful balance of smoky, nutty, and sharp notes that work perfectly when cooked over an open flame.

Whether you are hosting a summer barbecue or looking for a high-protein midweek meal, these medallions are impressively easy to prepare. Slicing the tenderloin into pinwheels ensures the meat stays juicy while allowing the edges of the bacon to caramelise beautifully. Serve these alongside a fresh green salad or roasted root vegetables for a complete, wholesome dinner that feels truly special.

Ingredients for Pecan-Crusted Pork Tenderloin Pinwheels with Carolina Mustard Sauce

  • 1 pork tenderloin

  • 6 bacon strips

  • Carolina Mustard Sauce

  • 240ml finely chopped pecans

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 teaspoons black pepper

Cut the tenderloin lengthwise into 6 long strips approximately 1/4 inch thick. Lay the slices on a cutting board; they should be the same size and shape as the bacon strips. Place a strip of bacon on top of each piece of tenderloin. Starting at one end, roll the tenderloin into a pinwheel medallion. Secure with two toothpicks.

Set aside 240ml the Carolina Mustard Sauce and apply remaining sauce to the outside of the pinwheels. Stir together the pecans, salt, and pepper, and coat the tenderloin pinwheels with the pecan mixture. Cut each of the pinwheels through the equator to make two thin pinwheel medallions.

Build a charcoal and/or wood fire for direct grilling. Place the medallions on the grill over medium-high heat (375 to 204°C) and cook for 7 to 8 minutes on each side or until the edges of the bacon start to crisp. Serve with the reserved sauce drizzled over each pinwheel.
