Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 2 pound package pork tenderloin, fat trimmed
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
  • 2 cups water
  • 0.5 cup brown sugar
  • 0.25 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 3 dashes hot pepper sauce
  • 0.5 cup mayonnaise
  • 3 tablespoons white vinegar
  • 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 pinch lemon pepper, or to taste
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste

Method
 

  1. Season pork tenderloin with salt, black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper.
  2. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; fry pork in hot oil until browned on all sides, about 10 minutes. Transfer meat to a slow cooker. Add water, brown sugar, cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, and hot sauce.
  3. Cook on Low for 7 hours. Remove tenderloin to a platter and drain cooking liquid, reserving about 1/2 cup. Shred pork and return to slow cooker. Add enough reserved liquid to moisten meat.
