Cooking the Hormel pork tenderloin in the slow cooker is very easy. Add the broth or water to the bottom of the crock pot first. Then, add in the pork tenderloin. Stick the meat thermometer into the largest part of the pork. Then, set the crock pot on low for 90 to 120 minutes. When the pork is done, slice into 8 pieces.
We top this with a homemade creamy dijon sauce for a mouthwatering, low carb dinner option. Cut each Pork Tenderloin into 3" pieces and using a meat mallet, pound pork pieces until ½″ thick. Toss with olive oil, oregano, dijon mustard and pepper to taste. Marinate 15 minutes. Meanwhile, combine all sauce ingredients except butter in a frying pan.
1. Heat oven to 400°F. 2. Season tenderloin with thyme, salt and pepper. 3. Heat oil in large ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add pork and cook on all sides until browned. Insert meat thermometer into thickest part of pork. Bake uncovered 35 to 40 minutes or until internal temperature reads 155°F.
As a bonus, this pork tenderloin is also low in carbs and low in calories: only 1 gram of carbs per serving for a total of 4 per entire tenderloin! All you need is a few cloves of garlic, dried and fresh herbs, coarse salt, olive oil and of course a pork tenderloin! And it wouldn’t hurt to have a meat thermometer either!
