1. Begin to baste The Clevelander onto the basket weave to lightly coat.

2. Place the tenderloin at the bottom of the bacon weave and gently roll it up. Be careful not to break the weave.

3. Once the pork tenderloin is completely rolled into the bacon weave, roll it over until the ends of the bacon are shown then secure those with toothpicks. If there is overlapping bacon at the ends, tuck the ends of the bacon weave over the pork tenderloin and secure the ends with toothpicks.

4. Let the tenderloin rest for up to 24 hours before cooking.
