Amazing Pork Tenderloin- slow cooker recipe

Ingredients:
  • 1 (2 pound) pork tenderloin
  • 1 (1 ounce) envelope dry onion soup mix
  • 1 cup water
  • 3/4 cup red wine
  • 3 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • freshly ground black pepper to taste

Directions:

  1. Place pork tenderloin in a slow cooker with the contents of the soup packet.
  2. Pour water, wine, and soy sauce over the top, turning the pork to coat.
  3. Carefully spread garlic over the pork, leaving as much on top of the roast during cooking as possible. (Before this step, I also evenly add 2 tsp of dijon mustard to the top of the loin)
  4. Sprinkle with pepper, cover, and cook on low setting for 4 hours.
  5. Serve with cooking liquid on the side as au jus.
