Ingredients

  • 2 pounds pork loin
  • 1 ½ pounds baby new potatoes
  • 1 pound baby carrots
  • 1 large red onion
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 cup MUSSELMAN’S® Apple Butter
  • cup Dijon mustard
  • cup soy sauce
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • salt and pepper

Directions

  1. Step 1
    Place a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, season the pork loin with salt and pepper and lay it in the skillet. Sear the pork loin on all sides to seal in the juices, about 8-10 minutes. (If using a regular skillet, add 1 tablespoon oil).

  2. Step 2
    Peel the red onion and cut into large chunks. Cover the bottom of a large 6-quart slow cooker with half of the onions, potatoes, and carrots. Lay the seared pork loin over the top and surround it with the remaining vegetables.

  3. Step 3
    In a small bowl, whisk the minced garlic, apple butter, dijon mustard, soy sauce and broth together. Pour the mixture over the pork and vegetables.

  4. Step 4
    Cover the crock pot and turn on low for 8-10 hours, or high for 4-6 hours. 

  5. Step 5
    When potatoes are tender, it is ready. Cut the tenderloin into thin slices and place on a platter, surrounded by the vegetables. 

  6. Step 6
    Taste gravy, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Pour gravy over pork and serve.

How long does it take to cook a pork roast with potatoes and carrots?

Put the pork on a rack in a roasting pan and place in the oven. Reduce heat to 325 degrees, and roast meat for about 45 minutes. Toss the potatoes and carrots with the olive oil, sprinkle with salt, and place in the pan around the pork. Roast another 75 minutes, or until a meat thermometer reads 160 degrees.

How long should you cook pork in a slow cooker?

Cover and cook on high for 6-7 hours or low for 9-10 or until meat pulls apart easily with a fork. Remove from crockpot and shred meat. Remove any large pieces of fat. Save some of the juice to spoon over pork when serving.

What is the difference between pork loin and pork tenderloin?

The names may be almost the same, but pork loin and pork tenderloin are different cuts of meat. A pork tenderloin is a long, narrow, boneless cut of meat that comes from the muscle that runs along the backbone. A pork loin is wider and flatter, and can be a boneless or bone-in cut of meat.

How do you cook pork tenderloin without drying it out?

Brush the pork tenderloin with additional marinade, then bake in a preheated oven at 425°F for about 15-20 minutes, until the pork reaches a temperature of 145°F, then remove it from the oven. Cooking the pork tenderloin at the high temperature of 425 degrees F helps it cook quickly and prevents it from drying out.
