Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1.25 cups steak sauce such as Heinz 57®
  • 0.25 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 0.25 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1.25 teaspoons liquid smoke
  • 1 3 pound lean boneless pork tenderloin, or to taste

Method
 

  1. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, chili powder, and pepper until blended; cook until garlic has softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add steak sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, and liquid smoke. Stir and bring to a light boil.
  2. Put pork tenderloin into a slow cooker and pour the sauce on top. Cook until the pork falls apart when touched with a fork, 5 to 6 hours on High or 10 to 12 hours on Low.
  3. Place pork on a plate and shred it using 2 forks. Put the pork back in the sauce until ready to serve.
