Create a flavorful, quick, and easy dinner with this crock pot brown sugar pork tenderloin recipe.
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!
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.

Made this tonight in the oven instead of in the crock pot. Delicious! 🙂 Thanks for sharing!
Leigh Anne says
So glad it was a success!
Cammy says
I made this tonight and it was fantastic! I didn’t have any Dijon mustard so I actually just used plain yellow mustard. I was worried that the flavor would be “off” because of this, but it turned out just fine. Also, I only have a large slow cooker (6-qt) so I doubled the sauce and added some yellow onions just to take up space. YUM – I’ll definitely make this one again!
Leigh Anne says
So glad that it worked out well for you and that you enjoyed it! Thanks for letting me know.
Angela Jacobs says
This looks so yummy. I am making it for tonight. I did not have Dijon mustard so I used whole grain garlic mustard. I prepped some pumpkin soup and we will have crescent rolls to have with it. It is smelling so yummy right now.
Leigh Anne says
Sounds like a delicious dinner – enjoY!

Can we freeze the leftovers? Any recommendations would be appreciated.
Leigh Anne says
Yes, just be sure they are in good airtight container or ziploc type bag

Hi there! thanks for the recipe. I am always looking for something new for dinner and this is a keeper! I like to season the tenderloin and sear it with onions then put it in the crockpot. This is a great recipe!
