Sift cracked peppercorns through a fine-mesh strainer; discard finer particles. Sprinkle remaining cracked peppers on a work surface. Roll tenderloin in peppercorns to coat, using hands to press peppercorns evenly into meat.
Heat oil in an extra-large skillet over medium-high heat. Place coated tenderloin, rosemary, and garlic in skillet. Quickly brown meat on all sides, turning as needed. Spoon oil over meat several times.
Place tenderloin on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Insert an ovenproof meat thermometer into center of tenderloin. Roast, uncovered, for 35 to 40 minutes or until meat thermometer reaches 130 degrees. Remove meat from oven, cover meat with foil; let stand for 15 minutes before serving (temperature of meat will rise to 140 degrees during standing).
