Slow Cooker Cranberry Orange Pork Tenderloin

Pork tenderloin, slow cooked in a cranberry and orange sauce with golden raisins. The perfect holiday dinner!
Pork tenderloin is one of my family’s favorite cuts of meat. It’s pretty much a staple at our house.
And this Slow Cooker Cranberry Orange Pork Tenderloin is fancy enough to serve for Christmas or Thanksgiving dinner!
The best part is, fancy doesn’t mean difficult. This pork tenderloin is so easy to make. And since it’s done in the slow cooker, you’ll have plenty of room in the oven for all your side dishes.
Cranberry and orange is such a great combination of flavors too, especially for the holidays. And don’t be afraid of the golden raisins that are thrown into the mix.
My family was skeptical, but they add a wonderful sweetness. Basically, we loved everything about this pork roast–including the golden raisins.
With the fresh cranberries and orange juice, the raisins cook down into this wonderful, chutney-like sauce that’s the perfect accompaniment to slices of this tender, delicious cut of pork.
Not only does this tenderloin taste amazing, it makes a beautiful presentation on your holiday table too. Your friends and family will think you spent hours in the kitchen!
