Ingredients:

• 2–2½ lb pork tenderloin

• 2 cups fresh or frozen peach slices (peeled if fresh)

• ¼ cup balsamic vinegar

• 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup

• 1 tbsp Dijon mustard

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• ½ tsp salt

• ¼ tsp black pepper

• ½ tsp dried thyme

• Optional: fresh rosemary or basil for garnish

Instructions:

1. Make the sauce
   In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon, garlic, salt, pepper, and thyme.

2. Add everything to the slow cooker
   Place pork tenderloin in the crockpot. Top with peach slices and pour sauce evenly over everything.

3. Slow cook
   Cover and cook on low for 6–7 hours or high for 3–4 hours, until pork is tender and pulls apart easily.

4. Shred and stir
   Remove pork, shred with two forks, and return to the slow cooker. Stir to coat in the peach balsamic sauce.

5. Serve and enjoy
   Spoon over rice, quinoa, mashed potatoes, or with roasted summer veggies. Garnish with fresh herbs.

Sarah’s Tips:

• Use what you have: Canned peaches (in juice, not syrup) work in a pinch — just drain them first.

• Don’t over-shred: For a fancier dinner, slice instead of shred and drizzle with the sauce.

• Want a thicker sauce? Remove pork and simmer sauce in a saucepan for 5–10 minutes to reduce.

• Leftovers: Amazing in sliders or added to a salad with goat cheese and pecans!

Flavorful Conclusion:

This Slow Cooker Peach Balsamic Pork Tenderloin is sweet, savory, and slow-cooked to summer perfection. Whether you serve it on a weeknight or with a glass of rosé on the patio, it’s an effortless, elegant dinner that always hits the spot.
