Super Quick and Easy! If I told you, you could have this recipe done in only 1 hour in the crockpot, I know you'd be skeptical. I am telling you, you only need 8 ingredients and 1 hour to cook to enjoy this super flavorful and delicious tenderloin.
Tender and Juicy. With this recipe, it is important only to cook your tenderloin until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F. Remove and tent with foil and let it sit for at least 5 minutes before you slice and serve. This lets all those juices soak back up for the best tender and juicy bite.
Make it Healthy. Use low-sugar peach preserves or make your own homemade peach jam with a sugar substitute such as allulose. Use coconut aminos or gluten-free soy sauce instead of regular soy sauce to make it gluten-free.
Slow Cooker Pork Tenderloin Ingredients
Here's what you'll need to make this pork tenderloin slow cooker recipe:
- Pork Tenderloins: trim and cut in half to fit into your slow cooker if needed. Make sure to cut out the silver skin when trimming your tenderloin.
- Jarred Peach Preserves: use any brand preference. Use no sugar added or a sugar substitute preserves to reduce sugar.
- Fresh Ginger Root: you may find already peeled and grated fresh ginger root; otherwise, you can easily peel whole ginger root with a spoon and then grate with a microplane.
- Minced Garlic: mince fresh or store-bought pre-minced garlic to save prep time.
- Lemon Juice
- Soy Sauce: use any variety of soy sauce to your preference; use tamari or coconut aminos for a gluten-free option.
- Peaches: fresh peaches are best for flavor and texture; use frozen in the off-season. You may need to increase your cooking time due to frozen peaches.
- Corn Starch: used to make a slurry to add to your crockpot juices to make a thickened sauce to serve over your tenderloin.

Ginger paste may be used instead of grated ginger.
Use pork chops instead of pork tenderloin. Your cooking time may vary, but you still cook until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F. Tent with foil when done to keep them tender and juicy.

FAQs for Pork Tenderloin in Crock Pot
As long as the pork tenderloin is cooked to 145 degrees F it should be very tender. It's quite easy to cook. You could also sear all sides of the tenderloin on a hot pan with oil before cooking as well. Searing seals in more juices, provides additional flavor and color as well.
You do not need to flip your pork loin in the slow cooker. The slow cooker cooks evenly, so there is no need to flip it at any point during the cooking process.
Cook it on low. It only takes about an hour on low to cook a juicy pork tenderloin in a crock pot.
It is best to cook your tenderloin with the fat side up so that while the tenderloin cooks, the fat absorbs into the meat aiding in adding flavor, tenderness, and the perfect juicy bite!
