Ingredients

12 servings

•

1 (3 pound) pork tenderloin
•

salt and ground black pepper to taste
•

3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
•

1 (16 ounce) bottle hickory-flavored barbecue sauce
•

1 cup ketchup

•

0.5 cup brown sugar
•

0.25 cup cider vinegar
•

2 teaspoons dried oregano
•

2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
•

0.5 teaspoon hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco®)

Instructions

Preheat a slow cooker on High for 15 minutes.
Rub tenderloin with salt and pepper.
Add 1 tablespoon oil to the hot slow cooker. Add tenderloin and sear for 1 to 2 minutes per side.
Meanwhile, mix barbecue sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, remaining 2 tablespoons oil, oregano, Worcestershire sauce, and hot pepper sauce in a medium bowl. Pour over the seared tenderloins to cover.
Cover the slow cooker, reduce to Low, and cook until pork is slightly pink in the center, 4 to 4 1/2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). If you want to shred the pork, cook for 1 to 2 more hours.
