Pork tenderloin has to be one of my favorite ingredients. Many cooks are familiar with cooking a pork loin; however, the tenderloin is easier to work with and has an incredibly delicate flavor that can’t be beat. Sometimes called the pork filet, the tenderloin is a small, thin cut that comes from the same area as the loin. It is boneless and lean and usually weighs about a pound.
Tenderloin is most often cooked quickly over high heat, but it is easy to overcook and dry out because the cut is so lean. We have a foolproof cooking technique that uses the slow cooker, creating a juicy and tender dish that allows the tenderloin’s natural flavors to shine. A few minutes of prep in the morning are going to really pay off at the end of the day with this recipe.
