I haven't tried this recipe but pork tenderloin is not a piece of meat I would put in a slow cooker. It only takes 20-30 minutes to roast in a toaster oven at 350 degrees. We cook it til a thermometer inserted in the middle reads 145. Its still a little pink inside but is juicy and tender. A slow cooker would not do justice to this tasty piece of meat.

This recipe was AWESOME and FLAVORFUL! Instead of using our normal crockpot, I used our Rival 6qt cooker/fryer/steamer. Dinner was done in a little over 2 hours. Of course I had to add water because that thing is one heck of a cooker! There was no juices left over to make gravy, but it was perfect even without it! I'll hold on to this recipe!

It's a delicious, easy meal to make. I love to cook in the slow cooker. The meats always come out so tender. One pot meals are great when you're busy. There was nothing left over.

this is a first for me--pork stuffed with apples and cranberries. It was very good. I have also stuffed the pork with sauteed peppers and onions or stuffing. My family love these stuffed porks. Thanks for a new version. I always have to partially cook the potatoes first if using a crock pot...

Didn't make rolled pork. Just layered on top of pork tenderloin. Great! Have made it again; doubled recipe for guests. Everyone loved it.
