Healthy Crockpot Pulled Pork

 From: The Clean Eating Couple

Ingredients:

• 2.5 lbs pork tenderloin
• 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
• 1 Tbsp paprika
• 1 Tbsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp pepper
• 1/2 tsp onion powder
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp ginger
• 1 cup chicken stock
• Barbecue sauce of your choice (I made my own)

Clean off "silver skin" from pork tenderloin to make sure it's lean.

In a bowl, whisk together olive oil and spices. Marinate pork in olive oil and spices overnight if possible, in a ziploc bag. Otherwise, place tenderloins in crockpot and cover with oil/spice marinade. Make sure all areas of the pork have some marinade on them.

Pour chicken stock on top of the marinated tenderloins.

Cook on low for 6-8 hours in the crockpot, or on high for 4-6 hours.

Use tongs or a fork to pull the tenderloins apart when they are done cooking. All the juices to soak into the pulled pork. 

Toss with barbecue sauce if you choose!

Verdict:

This was a big thumbs up for everyone in my house! We had about three small slices of tenderloin left over. To be honest, it was a little sweet for my taste buds, but considering it was a hit with everyone else in the house, I'll probably make it again.
