Ingredients

Shredded Pork

  • 3 Lbs Pork Tenderloin
  • Salt/Pepper
  • Olive Oil
  • 1 Cup Chicken or Vegetable Stock
  • 1/2 teaspoon Ground Sage

Blackberry Sauce

  • 10 ounces Fresh Blackberries
  • 1/4 Cup Balsamic Vinegar
  • 1/4 Cup Olive Oil
  • Pinch Salt

Instructions

Shredded Pork

  • Salt and pepper pork tenderloin. Sear pork in large pan over high heat.
  • Oil the bottom of a 6qt slow cooker. Transfer pork tenderloin to slow cooker. Add stock and sage.
  • Cook on low for 8-9 hours. (I do not recommend cooking on high as it can cause the pork to dry out)
  • Remove pork from slow cooker and shred. It should be falling apart.

Blackberry Sauce

  • Pulse blackberries in blender. Push blackberry mixture through mesh strainer. Discard seeds.
  • In a 3.5qt pot, bring blackberry pulp, vinegar, olive oil and salt to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 15-20 minutes while whisking occasionally. Vigorously whisk the last 2-3 minutes.
  • Once the sauce reaches a syrupy consistency, set aside to cool and thicken for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

*This sauce recipe makes enough to drizzle over pork when serving. For extra saucy pork, double the recipe.
