Tasty Pork Tenderloin, (not)
Back to Blog List

  1. Still in the same cookbook.  The person providing is recipe is Janice Yoskovich from Carmichael’s PA.  This recipe is just not made for a pork tenderloin.  I pulled it out after 1 hour on low and thought it was over cooked.  The sauce was unbelievably delicious.  The pork over cooked.  Jim said it was 130 degrees F.  Nothing else was ready as I was also trying to get the next night started with no help of if he had to, it was with a lot of grumping.  I quite and went in to put my legs in the compression boots.  So he tented it like I said, did the rice, and decided to make a salad, it was overdone.  I saved the sauce which was plenty for 5 C of cooked rice!  I think a boneless pork shoulder in it would be great.  The pork tenderloin was supposed to serve 8.  Essentially a small section of the pork and a little over a C of rice would be the portion.  Well, Jim ate the whole pork tenderloin, 1 C uncooked rice, cooked and 1/2 the salad he made with a whole heart of Romaine lettuce and 2 tomatoes.  Essentially this cookbook is made for people who work, but I am using it as I would like to have time to paint.  I spend hours in the kitchen and still don’t do anything but feed him.  It is like feeding the whole 3rd army.  

    Ingredients:   

    1 1/2# pork tenderloin

    12 oz. chili sauce

    16 oz. can jellied cranberry sauce

    2 T brown sugar

    5 C cooked long grain enriched rice.

    Directions:

    1. Place pork tenderloin in slow cooker
    2. Mix together chili sauce, cranberry sauce, and brown sugar.  Pour over pork
    3. Cover and cook on high 4-5 hours, and then on low 3-4 hours.  
    4. Serve over rice.  

    Like I said total waste of the price of a tenderloin.  Probably perfect for a tenderloin.  It would make a version of BBQ pork sandwich.  No picture!
