This super simple crock pot meal turned out so well! I love an easy meal you can have ready when you get home from work. This pork is SO tender and has a hint of sweetness from the sauce, which is delicious! Instead of using a pork shoulder, which is typically used in pulled pork, I used pork tenderloin. It works great! The result is awesome. It is a much leaner cut, which means this dish has less fat. It also means that it cooked fairly quickly! You can get this one done in 3-4 hours!

I served mine with white rice and grilled pineapple, along with a few sliced jalapenos! It was perfect. This pork would be great in tacos or over cauliflower rice. Even on a pizza!

Here is what you will need:

• Pork Tenderloin
• Red Onion
• Liquid Smoke – trust me on this one!
• Pineapple Juice
• Coconut Aminos – I use these to keep the sodium down and to keep this gluten free. You can swap with low sodium soy sauce.
• Sugar Free Ketchup
• Brown Sugar Substitute – I love Lakanto brand
• Rice Vinegar
