Create a flavorful, quick, and easy dinner with this crock pot brown sugar pork tenderloin recipe.
We love pork tenderloin at our house. It is usually my family’s first choice of meat, especially since one of my children is allergic to beef. And one of our favorite pork tender loin recipes is Crock Pot Brown Sugar Pork Tenderloin. Every member of my family is a big fan of this sweet pork dish and I am a fan of making it in my slow cooker!
For this recipe, use two tenderloins. You want to make sure you have about 4lbs of pork.
This brown sugar pork tenderloin has a delicious combination of maple syrup and brown sugar that I love. Not only is the meat sweet, but there is a depth in the flavor from the syrup. I love a little bit of sweet with my meat! Combine that with some dijon mustard, white balsamic vinegar and some dried thyme and you have a delicious meal.
I served this pork with my Parmesan Roasted Potatoes. They are a perfect combination.

This looks incredible! I cannot wait to try it, BUT how long would the cook time be for one 1.5-2lb tenderloin? Would all the other ingredients be the same measurements or would I halve them all since you use two tenderloins? I want to make this but I don’t want to ruin a piece of meat.

Would do the lower end of the time for a smaller piece of meat.
