I love my slow cooker
. She’s a hard worker in my kitchen. I love finding recipes where I can assemble the parts the night before and then throw everything in before I start my day. This really helps get dinner on the table fast on busy weeknights.This Slow Cooker Parmesan Pork is the perfect recipe. I love that it comes together really quickly. It would also make a great freeze-ahead slow cooker meal.
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.
When the pork is done cooking it’s incredibly tender. Then there’s the parmesan sauce. It’s thick and rich and luscious. This recipe is definitely a keeper!

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!

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?
Christina says
Unfortunately, I don’t. I cut it out a long time ago. 🙁 Sorry.
Dianna says
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!
Christina says
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! 🙂
carole says
I would never have put soy sauce and parmesan cheese in the same sentence let alone the same crockpot…but you say it works…………………….who knew !!!???
Christina says
It’s really, really good! I was shocked too but now I’m a believer! 🙂 Enjoy!

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.
