What You Need for Bacon Wrapped Turkey TenderloinFirst things first is a crock pot or slow cooker of course.

Turkey TenderloinFor my turkey tenderloin recipes, I use a Jennie O turkey breast tenderloin. I believe Hormel or Butterball makes one as well? There is a very limited market for turkey tenderloins; therefore, there are only a couple of brands. My Jennie O turkey tenderloin came in a package with two tenderloins. Each tenderloin was 12 ounces; however, I only made 1 piece. The single piece was enough for 3 servings which was perfect. However, you can certainly make both, we can go over adjusted cooking times. If you are on Weight Watcher (WW) or just watching your calories / fat, this is a very lean cut of meat, as compared to a pork tenderloin. If you prefer pork instead of turkey loin, I also have an amazing crock pot turkey tenderloin recipe, or make both! Spices / SeasoningsThis is the seasonings blend that I have perfected for really good, slow cooker, turkey tenderloin. It is not spicy. It is a little sweet, but not too sweet, just a hint of sweet.
However, you can certainly adjust the seasonings to your liking. If you are not a fan of one of the spices, you can omit it; however, you can also add more of one of the spices if you want to as well. Make this how you want to, it is your turkey loin. BaconBacon wrapped turkey tenderloin is going to need some bacon. I use 6 pieces of just your average, generic bacon. That will be two pieces of bacon per serving. However, you can cut that in half or skip the bacon all together. BBQ SauceWith the BBQ sauce, I choose to use a sugar free one. G Hughes is usually my go-to. You are more than welcome to use any of your favorite BBQ sauces. I want this recipe to be something you, enjoy and love, and that just speaks you. Just be cautious as I do add brown sugar back into the sauce. If you are using a BBQ sauce with sugar, it may be too sweet for you. Brown SugarI always, typically, use brown sugar replacement. It is easy grab a huge package from Amazon and that is what I always use. I do not mind using a replacement sugar. However, I know some people have concerns with that. You can substitute a brown sugar blend or just straight brown sugar. Honey MustardI just use generic honey mustard for this recipe. Yes, it has sugar. It is pretty thick and makes a nice glazing for the slow cooker turkey tenderloin. However, you can use a sugar free honey mustard if you wish. Alternatively, to keep it less sweet, substitute regular mustard. How to Make Bacon Wrapped Turkey TenderloinFirst things first is to grab a crock pot or slow cooker of course. I use the original crock pot brand and I love using the liners for easy clean up; however, you do not have to. Make sure you grab a meat thermometer too, that can stay in a closed crock. I like to add a tablespoon or two of broth in the bottom of the crock pot. I think it keeps the turkey moist but who knows. Pour it into the crock pot first. If the turkey is really moist, blot with a paper towel to absorb any excess moisture. Then, combine all of the seasonings in a small bowl, whisking together. Press the spices into the turkey tenderloin, being sure to coat all the sides. Place the turkey loin at the bottom of the crock pot. Spread the pieces of bacon across the turkey, making sure the middle of the bacon pieces are at the middle of the turkey. Wrap the bacon under the turkey, tightly, crossing the bacon pieces over under the turkey. Pack the rest of the brown sugar on to the bacon. In a bowl, stir together the BBQ sauce and honey mustard. Then, pour the sauce on top of the turkey tenderloin. If using a meat thermometer, this is the time to place it into the largest area of the tenderloin; however, you do not need to. CookingPlace the lid on the crock pot and cook on low for 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours, until the turkey reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees. It will take about 8 to 10 minutes per ounce. Once the turkey tenderloin is fully cooked, remove from the crock pot and let sit for 10 minutes. Then, cut the turkey tenderloin into 6 equal slices, 2 slices per serving. Making More Slow Cooker Turkey TenderloinThe Jennie O turkey tenderloin My Jennie O turkey tenderloin came in a package with two tenderloins.

If you need this quicker, make my instant pot turkey tenderloin. It only needs to cook for 10 minutes! Pour ⅓ cup low sodium chicken broth into the bottom of the pot. This will keep the turkey moist and help bring the pot to pressure. Then, repeat the same steps as you would with the crock pot, seasoning and saucing the loin. Place the turkey loin at the bottom of the pot. Cover the pot and secure the lid. Make sure the valve is set to sealing. Set the pressure cook button to 10 minutes and start it. Once completely cooked, let set for 5 minutes, then vent and de-pressurize the Instant Pot then open the lid. If the turkey is thinner, it may only need 9 minutes. However, be sure it comes up to temperature. What to Serve with a Turkey TenderloinPotatoes and crock pot tenderloin are the best combination! I served this with my roasted red potatoes.
