Len's Recipe of the Month - November 2017

Sorry.   Just because it's November, I'm not going to bore you with a Thanksgiving recipe.   Nope, this one is perfect for any Sunday dinner.   It's ideal for slow cooking the day away.

Technically, this is called Honey Pork Tenderloin and the slow cooker makes it so moist and tender.   Simple to make, gang.

First, slice up an onion and lay it on the bottom of a crock pot.   Use a cellophane liner for easy clean-up.

With a 1 1/2 to 2 pound pork tenderloin in hand, make about four to five slits on the top.   Stick a clove of garlic into each one.  Lay the meat on top of the onions.  Put some kosher salt and pepper on top.

In a bowl, mix the following:

1/4 cup EVO.   Yes, that's extra virgin olive oil, you cooking neophytes.

1 cup of chicken stock or broth.

1/4 cup of soy sauce.

1/2 cup of honey.

Mix well and pour it into the crock pot.

Set the machine on low for 4 hours.   And you're done.

Pull the meat out and let it rest for 15 minutes while you make some sides of your choice.   In the picture above, I did some heirloom rice and broccoli.

Serve the meat with the onions.

Eat it up like a pig.

Dinner last night:  Lasagna.
