Notes

Store leftover pork in the fridge for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months. I recommend slicing or shredding the meat before serving to easily reheat and repurpose.
A 3.5 or 4-quart sized slow cooker should work well for about 2 pounds of meat. If you use a larger slow cooker, the meat may cook a little faster.
If the pork tenderloin does not fit in your slow cooker lengthwise, feel free to slice it in half and lay the portions side by side.
Pork is fully cooked when it reaches 145 ℉ and can be easily sliced.
If you’d prefer the pork to be more of a fork-tender and easy to shred, cook it to 200 - 205 ℉. You can also add a bit more liquid (water or broth) to keep it from getting dry.
