Slow Cooker Pork Tenderloin Recipe – Learn Like a Pro

A homemade rub gives it just the right amount of flavor, and it doesn’t take much work or preparation.

Ingredients

2 pork tenderloins about 1 pound each
1/2 cup beef broth
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper or to taste
1/4 cup butter cut into pats
Chopped parsley optional, to taste

Instructions

To get the tenderloins ready, cut off any extra fat and the tough silver skin that may cover some of each one. Put the beef broth in the slow cooker.

Put brown sugar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper into a small bowl. Then, stir the spices together.

Spread the spice rub all over the tenderloins with your hands. You might want to do this with one tenderloin at a time on a plate.

Place the pork tenderloins in the slow cooker and add any extra rub that is still on the plate. Close the lid and put the butter pats on top of and around the tenderloins.

Slow cookers can be very different, and it’s easy to overcook tenderloin. Check to see if it’s done after 2 hours on low or 1 hour on high.

Put the lid back on and check again in 5 to 10 minutes to see if it’s still closed. If it’s not, 145F to 150F will be medium after resting, and 160F is already well done.

It will take longer to cook tenderloins that are bigger than 1 pound each. The pork tenderloins should be left to rest for 5 minutes before being cut into medallions.

Put the pork back in the slow cooker and toss it with the sauce. You can also put the pork on a plate and pour the sauce over it. If you want, you can sprinkle chopped parsley on top.

Notes

Depends on portion size, it serves 6 to 8 people. Everything but the beef broth should be cut in half if you only want to make one pork tenderloin.

Pork loin is a different, tougher cut of meat that needs to be cooked for longer with this recipe.

It’s safe to eat pork that’s 145F in the middle. It’s okay to be a little pink! With an instant read meat thermometer, you’ll never again cook meat too much or too little.
