tom's barbacoa pork tenderloin

​This week’s recipe features Tom’s Barbacoa Pork Tenderloin. It is another favorite of Tom’s and mine because it is a recipe for Pork Tenderloin and it uses a Crock-Pot to cook it in!  We both also love Root Beer so we sweeten this recipe up with Root Beer and Tom’s Secret Sauce, Brown Sugar! Sweetening it up seems to make it Barbacoa and Barbacoa seems to make it good for Cinco de Mayo (at least I think so!) and Cinco de Mayo is Sunday! And I like Curry, so I use Curry Powder in my recipe.

INGREDIENTS
3 pounds Pork Tenderloin (cut up into approx. 2x2x2 chunks)
16 ounces Root Beer
28 ounces Green Enchilada Sauce
½ cup White Sugar
½ cup Brown Sugar
4 tablespoons Minced Garlic
2 teaspoons Curry Powder
1 teaspoon Dry Mustard

DIRECTIONS
1.    Spray Crock-Pot with cooking spray.
2.    Mix all ingredients in Crock-Pot thoroughly.
3.    Slow cook about 4 hours on low.
4.    Serve in tortillas (as tacos) or with rice or however you please! 
​5.    Enjoy!!   

God Bless, Peg
