Sunday Dinner Crockpot Pork Tenderloin

Note:  I like coming home after church and having dinner as a family.    I just do not like going out to eat on Sundays.     Of course, when we get home from church the boys are usually "starving" so I need to have our lunch already partially started.      This tenderloin is a double duty dish.   We can eat it for Sunday dinner with some saffron rice and salad, but then slice it up for au ju sandwiches on Monday before going to baseball practice.

Sunday Dinner Crockpot Pork Tenderloin

Ingredients
pork tenderloin (about 2 pounds)
1 envelope dry onion mix
1 cup water
1 cup leftover cold coffee
3 Tablespoons minced garlic
3 Tablespoons soy sauce
freshly ground pepper

Directions
Stir together onion mix, water, coffee, and soy sauce.   Place pork tenderloin in the crock pot.   Pour liquid mixture over the tenderloin making sure it is covered well with the liquid.     Sprinkle minced garlic over the top of the pork tenderloin.    Sprinkle with pepper.     Cover and cook on low for 4 hours.

That's great that it works out well for 2 meals.

Sundays are usually horrible days to try to go out and eat lunch anyway.

Awesome. I make pork tenderloin often but never in the crock.
