Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 3 (12 fluid ounce) bottles hard apple cider

  • ¾ cup brown sugar, divided

  • 1 (2 pound) pork tenderloin

  • ½ cup butter

  • 1 large onion, cut into strips

  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • ½ teaspoon onion powder

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Combine hard apple cider and 1/4 cup brown sugar in a slow cooker; mix until dissolved. Add pork tenderloin.

  2. Cook on Low for 6 hours until very tender. Shred pork with a fork.
