This is quick and easy to prepare and cook in the slow cooker. Grease the slow cooker with a little oil or use a cooking bag to make cleanup easier.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 7 hours

Total Time: 7 hours, 10 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 pork tenderloins, about 1 pound each
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 small clove garlic, minced
  • 4 tablespoons grainy Dijon mustard or country-style
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cider vinegar or balsamic vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried leaf thyme, crumbled
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon cold water

Preparation:

Wash and trim the pork and pat dry; sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Place pork in the slow cooker. Combine garlic, mustard, honey, brown sugar, vinegar, and thyme; pour over the pork. Turn pork to coat thoroughly. Cover and cook on LOW for 7 to 9 hours, or on HIGH for 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 hours.

Remove pork to a plate, cover with foil, and keep warm. Pour the juices into a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Simmer for 8 to 10 minutes, or until reduced by about one-third. Combine the cornstarch and cold water; whisk into the reduced juices and cook for 1 minute longer. Serve pork sliced with the thickened juices.

Serves 6.

Honey Mustard PUKE Tenderloin is more like it, Member ChefLaura

I was so excited to try this recipe. Had all the ingredients I love. Cooked the meal and went to serve dinner and the Pork Loin was very dry which I actually used the lesser of the time said to cook. I served the food to my family and my husband and I could barely tolerate the meal. My kids just pushed their plates away after a couple of bites. The flavor was horrible. It actually made our stomachs upset that we had to stop eating it. Normally when a meal taste bad we still eat it for not wanting to waste food but this one? blek = P We ended up cooking something else. Sorry to be so harsh but I DO NOT recommend this recipe to ANYONE. By the way my username says chef but I am just a stay at home momma who loves to cook.
