Slow Cooker Pork Tenderloin Ingredients

These are the ingredients you’ll need to make this easy slow cooker pork tenderloin recipe: 

  • Pork tenderloin: A two-pound pork tenderloin should make about six servings. 
  • Soup mix: A package of dry onion soup mix is the convenient, budget-friendly secret ingredient; 
  • Water: A cup of water helps the pork tenderloin stay moist during cooking. 
  • Wine: Red wine lends complexity and enhances the flavor.
  • Soy sauce: Soy sauce adds savory flavor.
  • Garlic: Fresh garlic lends a bold flavor. 
  • Pepper: Since there’s salt in the soup mix and soy sauce, you’ll just need to add black pepper to the slow cooker.

Allrecipes Community Tips and Praise

“Wow, I loved this roast,” raves Christy Ratto-Bixby. “So yummy and easy. I did layer the bottom with sliced onion and some mushrooms, cooked as written, then thickened the sauce with cornstarch after removing the roast.”

“Absolutely delicious,” according to Lorie4040. “Even better two days later. I served it with Rice-a-Roni, but had leftovers with mashed potatoes. Soooooo goooood.”

“This is one of our favorite slow cooker recipes,” says KEK. “I use the beef-flavored onion soup. I typically serve this with mashed potatoes or stuffing, which the gravy is great with.”
