Ingredients

  • 1.5-2 lbs pork tenderloin
  • ½ cup teriyaki sauce ready made
  • 20 ounce canned pineapple chunks

Cornstarch Slurry

  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons water

Instructions

  • Add the pork tenderloin to the crockpot and pour the teriyaki sauce over it. Using a tong, turn the tenderloin to coat it in the sauce. Reserve a few pineapple chunks for garnishing the dish, and pour the rest, including the juices, into the insert alongside the tenderloin.
  • Cover and cook on high for 2 to 2 ½ hours or on low for 4 hours or until the pork reaches 145°F and is tender.
  • Remove the tenderloin to a serving platter, cover, and let rest 10 to 20 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk together the cornstarch slurry. Turn the crockpot to high and stir in the cornstarch mixture. Cover and let the sauce thicken while the tenderloin rests.

Notes

  1. Pork temperature: Pork tenderloin is done when it reaches 145°F in the thickest part. Let it rest before slicing or shredding.
  2. Pork tenderloin vs. pork loin: This recipe is written for pork tenderloin. Pork loin is larger and will need a longer cooking time.
  3. Sauce tip: For a thicker sauce, transfer the cooking liquid to a saucepan and simmer with the cornstarch slurry until it reaches your desired consistency.
  4. Serving idea: Serve over coconut rice, jasmine rice, or in tacos, sliders, or bowls with cilantro, pineapple, lime, and jalapeños.
