Betty's Crock Pot Pork Roast Tenderloin and Gravy Recipe

in this video, Betty demonstrates how to make roast pork in a crock pot, and also to make smooth, delicious, low-fat pork roast gravy. Very tender pork and tasty gravy!

Ingredients:

2.5 lb. whole boneless pork tenderloin
meat tenderizer (to taste)
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 .25 cups water

Thaw the pork tenderloin, if frozen. Use meat tenderizer to salt and tenderize the pork to taste. Place the pork tenderloin (in one or two pieces) in a crock pot and cook on low all day for a dinner meal (roughly 8 to 10 hours). When ready to serve, remove the cooked pork tenderloin to a tray or cutting board. Slice into desired serving pieces and place on a serving platter. Now, make your pork roast gravy. From the juices that are left in the crock pot, spoon off as much fat and pork slivers as you can, and then pour the juices into a saucepan. Mix together 1/4 cup cornstarch and 1.25 cups water, and add to the saucepan of juices. Stir thoroughly before putting the saucepan over heat. Now, move the saucepan to a burner on your cooktop. Turn the heat on to low, and cook the gravy, stirring constantly. If the gravy is too thick, add a little water at a time until it is smooth and of perfect consistency. Serve while hot!

Menu suggestion: Place sliced pork on serving plate, along with some (instant or homemade) mashed potatoes. Ladle your pork roast gravy over the pork and mashed potatoes. Serve with Betty's Nutty Broccoli and Cauliflower with Cheese Sauce, a hot yeast roll, and a fruit-flavored drink. Enjoy this quick and easy dinner!

gravy with no salt, pepper only the drippings from the tenderloin... I would think would be very bland.

[bettyskitchen]

@MAEUNC Actually, it is very tasty, because I use only the juices from the meat (which was well salted). You may add pepper, if you like that, but it is my personal preference to omit it. This gravy is anything but bland!

i just did the same and let it rest for about the same time, and i belive you do need a better knife because i could cut it nice and clean

Doesn't pork tenderloin have VERY little fat in it??? 8 hours seems to be a long time... IF you don't use meat tenderizer OR salt (since it would draw the moisture out), how long would you cook it?

I did one a week ago, cooked it for 4 hours, on low, and it came out kind of dry, but was still good. I did, however, add a little water to the crock pot, maybe 1/4 cup of water??? Don't know if I was supposed to do that...

@coachfb18 Thank you!

@bettyskitchen Thanks Betty, Good Suff!

[bettyskitchen]

@coachfb18 I didn't add anything else. I almost always season any type of meat with salt or tenderizer and then put it directly in the crock pot with no further additions until it is done. It releases juices on its own.

Ok when you left the tenderloins overnite with the meat tenderizer what else did you add? water? anything or just the tenderloins and meat tenderizers? Thanks, and very nice recipe!
