Make a tender, juicy pork tenderloin with this easy, set it and forget it crockpot recipe. The honey garlic sauce provides a savory and sweet flavor perfect for a simple dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pork tenderloins (about 1.5 lbs each)
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons cold water

Instructions

  1. Place the pork tenderloins in the bottom of your slow cooker.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, ginger, and pepper.
  3. Pour the sauce mixture evenly over the pork tenderloins.
  4. Cover the slow cooker and cook on LOW for 4 to 5 hours or on HIGH for 2 to 3 hours, until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  5. Carefully remove the pork tenderloins from the slow cooker and set them aside on a cutting board. Tent loosely with foil and let rest for 10 minutes.
  6. To make the sauce thicker, whisk the cornstarch and cold water together in a small bowl to create a slurry.
  7. Pour the liquid remaining in the slow cooker into a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Whisk in the cornstarch slurry and cook until the sauce thickens, about 1 to 2 minutes.
  8. Slice the pork tenderloin against the grain and serve drizzled with the thickened honey garlic sauce.

Notes

  • For the juiciest pork tenderloin, use a meat thermometer to check for doneness; 145 degrees Fahrenheit is the safe minimum internal temperature.
  • If you do not have apple cider vinegar, you can substitute it with white vinegar or dry sherry.
  • This recipe works well for a dump and go pork tenderloin slow cooker meal; prep time is minimal.
