Hi!

I am a mother of 2 small babes who motivate me to continue turning my passion into business. I am a lover of all things food & hospitality. I work as a private chef here in Nashville, TN & do private catering for various events from corporate gigs to studio sessions. My favorite part about cooking is the element of gathering people from all walks of life together with one thing in common. Enjoying a meal together. I grew up with a family that taught me through the generations that food is love. I hope that here you find some joy, some memories & some long lasting recipes to fill your home (& bellies)!

Crockpot Honey Garlic Pork Tenderloin

Crockpot Honey Garlic Pork Tenderloin

We looooove pork tenderloin. It is lean, juicy (when cooked right) & full of flavor. This crockpot version is super packed with flavor & so stinking easy!

Honey Garlic Crockpot Pork Tenderloin 

2 pork tenderloins (I sliced mine in half to fit in my crockpot) 

Rub: 

1 tbsp garlic powder

1 tbsp parsley

1 tsp onion powder

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp pepper

1/2 tsp paprika 

1 tsp brown sugar 

Oil to sear pork 

Sauce: 

1/2 cup chicken broth

1/2 cup honey (less if you want your sauce not as sweet) 

1 tbsp ketchup

3 tbsp soy sauce

4 garlic cloves minced 

2 tbsp corn starch & water

Combine the rub ingredients and rub onto pork. Sear the pork in a hot skillet until all sides are browned. Set into crockpot while you make your sauce. Combine all sauce ingredients and pour over the pork in crockpot. Cook on low for 3-4 hours (check temp with meat thermometer to reach 165) mine generally take 3.5 hours. Remove pork & thinly slice. Pour the sauce from crockpot into a pot on stovetop & add in the mix of cornstarch & water. Cook on medium high until sauce is thick. Serve over the pork.
