1 pork tenderloin (1 lb.)
1/4 tsp. cracked black pepper
1/4 c. packed brown sugar

Heat oven to 400 degrees.  Wrap bacon around meat.  Place in foil-lined pan sprayed with cooking spray; sprinkle meat with pepper.

Bake for 20 minutes or until cooked to 135 degrees.  Meanwhile, bring remaining ingredients to a boil in a saucepan on medium heat, stirring occasionally.

Brush meat with glaze.  Bake 10 minutes or until done (145 degrees); cover loosely with foil.  Let stand 5 minutes before slicing.
