This recipe just gets everything right. Tenderloin is the perfect cut of pork for a long simmer in the crockpot, and the fruity combination of apples and balsamic adds a stellar sweet note.
2 pounds pork tenderloins
1 large Granny Smith apple, chopped
1/4 cup applesauce
1 bunch green onions, sliced thinly
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
Slice the pork into 1 1/2-inch medallions. Place the pork slices in the bottom of the crock pot. Top with the chopped apple.
In a bowl, combine the applesauce, onions, brown sugar, and balsamic vinegar. Mix well to dissolve the sugar. Pour over the pork.
Cover the crock pot and cook on low heat for 6 hours or until the pork is cooked and tender. Serve the pork with the apples and sauce.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.

Fantastic taste, easy to prepare. Served it with mashed butternut squash as a side dish, the different tastes really complemented each other.

This was a very easy recipe to make and it is delicious. I used a red delicious apple and sweet onion as that what I had available. I cooked on high for 5 hrs and it was very tender and falling apart. Definitely will be making again.

My crock pot cooks awfully fast so I only cooked this on low for 5 hours. Really good flavor, definitely a german taste to it like another reviewer said. This will be a staple recipe in our house now.

Easy to prepare - would classify as a 2 rather than 3 for difficulty level. The smell of pork and the balsamic vinegar made me cringe at first. I hate the thought of sour pork - but it tasted amazing! I would cook this again and can't wait to try the fruit and pork tenderloin also listed on this site.

Fantastic - almost German tasting. The pork was so tender and it was great over buttered noodles.
