EASY RECIPE THURSDAYS ARE BACK!!!

For the second week in a row, I am adding a recipe to Terri's "Easy Recipe Thursdays" collection. Click HERE to see Terri's blog and other great EASY RECIPES!!

This week...I'm making Crock pot Tenderloin & Garlic Potatoes

INGREDIENTS:

Tenderloin
(Kroger's always seems to have the best tenderloin cuts at the best prices...about $7 for a good size cut).
1 bottle Kraft Honey BBQ sauce
1/2 Cup water

For the "rub"...
1/2 cup light brown sugar
2 tbs. Cinnamon
salt
pepper
garlic powder

Garlic Potatoes

About 5-6 large potatoes, washed & sliced
1/2 cup butter
salt
pepper
garlic powder
parsley flakes
1/2 cup water

DIRECTIONS:

First, prepare the dry pork rub by mixing all the indredients togther in a large bowl.
Sprinkle over one side of the tenderloin and rub in pressing down. Rotate the tenderloin until all sides are covered, adding any left over rub to the top portion of the meat. (This can be done a day in advance & let the meat marinate if desired). Tenderloin should pull apart with fork when done. Cut or pull apart sections to serve. Save leftovers for tenderloin & cheese sandwiches the next night! Serves 4 for 2 days!!!

Pour 1/2 cup water into crock pot. Add tenderloin. Pour about 3/4 bottle BBQ sauce over tenderloin. Cook for approximately 4-6 hours on high or 6-8 hours on low.

For the potatoes...
Place sliced potatoes in a 13 X 9 " pan. Season with salt, pepper, parsely flakes, and plenty of garlic powder. (I've never measured how much, just season to your own taste). Pour about a 1/2 cup of water into the bottom of pan. Add butter by tsp. in various spots over the potatoes. Cook at 450 degrees for 20 minutes or until potatoes are tender. "Mix" potatoes about 1/2 way through cooking. Serves 4

This recipe sounds like alot, but it really isn't much work and you cannot possibly mess it up! It always turns out wonderful! The best part is, the tenderloin is plenty to serve for 2 nights! It makes for great sandwiches. Just add cheese and bread-pop in the microwave about 30 seconds! Hope you enjoy!!!
