Just put all of the ingredients together in a zip top bag and stash it in the freezer.  Then, when you’re ready to make it, simply thaw the package overnight in the fridge, put it in your slow cooker and cook according to the directions.

  2. Going to try this recipe tmrw….What did you serve with it? I was thinking potatoes and add them to the slow cooker at same time, but not sure. What do you think

  3. I just found this recipe when I googled “Pork Tenderloin recipes” for the slow cooker. At the top of your recipe it states the “total time” is 45 minutes when, clearly, nothing cooks in a slow cooker in 45 min! lol Also, the list of ingredients lists “dried Italian seasoning” but in the directions it states “basil” I used the Italian seasoning – I hope I didn’t mess it up. it’s in the slow cooker right now!!

  4. You said to put it in a 3 quart crockpot…but you also said you use a 6 quart one…which should I use? I always have trouble with a small amount in a bigger one and a bigger amount in a small one…never seems to cook right!

  5. This might be a silly question….but when you cut the roast in half did you mean half width wise or length wise? Thank you for sharing! I can’t wait to try it!

  6. I made this for dinner tonight. It was a had great flavour, easy and had everything in my cupboard. I used the jar of Parm will try fresh next time but it was really good. I also left out the oil as I was out. This is in the family favourite recipe file!

  9. HELLO CHRISTINE, WHAT TYPE OF PARM CHEESE DID YOU USE, FRESHLY GRATED OR THE KIND IN THE GREEN CAN?…THANK YOU

  10. I discovered this recipe through pinterest; the roast looks delicious! I’ve been looking for good crock-pot recipes. You mentioned that you had clipped this recipe from a magazine — do you remember which one?

  11. Made this tonight. Really liked the flavor but I couldn’t slice my tenderloin as nice as the one in the picture. It just shredded like pulled pork. Did I cook it too long? Family liked it though, so I guess I can’t complain!

    • You would not believe how hard it was for me to make that photo look good! 🙂 It just didn’t slice nice. The second time I made this recipe, I just cut into chunks and then shredded it (since I didn’t have to worry about photographing it!). It’s so yummy that no one in my house cared that it didn’t look as pretty the second time around! 🙂

  20. I would never have thought of putting honey and Parmesan cheese together. But from the picture, I can tell it tastes great, plus I love pork loin and tenderloin.
