Tender Slow Cooked Teriyaki Pork Tenderloin a easy throw in the slow cooker Low Syn meal that is perfect for the whole family.

Gotta love slow cooker meals right? Super convenient and easy when you have a busy day ahead and don’t want to come in to have to slave at the cooker for any hour or so. Just throw the ingredients in the slow cooker and then later that day you have a delicious and tasty meal on the table.

When choosing a slow cooker, it’s hard to know which one to invest in. I recommend one where you can use the pot on the stove like this Morphy Richards Sear and Stew Digital Slow Cooker as it comes in super handy for when you want to sear or brown off ingredients before setting it to slow cooker. Also means less washing up too. 

Luckily for this delicious recipe for Slow Cooked Teriyaki Pork Tenderloin, no browning is needed, so it’s super easy to make.

Want to save even more time? You can even make the sides the night before.

For example Egg Fried Rice is my kids favourite to serve alongside this Slow Cooked Teriyaki Pork Tenderloin. So I always cook the rice the night before, then it is perfect for Egg Fried Rice the next day and literally takes just a couple of minutes to make.

You will notice I use brown sugar rather than sweetener in this delicious Slow Cooked Teriyaki Pork Tenderloin. Personally teriyaki sauce needs the real deal, as you just don’t get the same results with sweetener and once divided up, it’s not too bad syn wise anyway.

The sesame oil is just a tiny amount but really adds to the flavour and I love it in this sauce.

If you are gluten free, then just ensure you pick a gluten free soy sauce and you can enjoy this also. Hey this even works with coconut aminos if you can’t have soy either. Both can be found easily on Amazon.
