Slow Cooker Blackberry Pork Tenderloin

I cooked this blackberry pork tenderloin for a date, and he told me it was the best meal anyone besides his momma had ever cooked for him! That’s a terrific compliment, being from southern Louisiana.

Ingredients

  • 1 (2 pound) pork tenderloin
  • 1 tablespoon dried rubbed sage
  • 1 tablespoon crushed dried rosemary, or to taste
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 (16 ounce) jar seedless blackberry jam
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons dry red wine
  • 1 cup fresh blackberries
  • ½ cup dry red wine
  • 2 tablespoons honey

Directions

Step 1
Season pork tenderloin on all sides with sage, rosemary, salt, and pepper; place into a slow cooker. Spoon blackberry jam, 1/4 cup honey, and 2 tablespoons red wine over top. Cover and cook on Low until very tender and slightly pink in the center, 4 to 5 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Step 2
About 15 minutes before serving, bring blackberries, 1/2 cup red wine, and 2 tablespoons honey to a boil in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Reduce the heat and simmer until sauce thickens slightly and some berries burst, about 15 minutes.

Step 3
To serve, slice tenderloin and spoon blackberry sauce over top.

Tips

Use a dry red wine such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, or a blend.
