This recipe came up under pork-tenderloin search. This may be a dumb question, can I alter some way to use tenderloin slices, unevenly cut? Butcher ruined by messing up cutting and they won't cook evenly in oven, so I need to do crock pot. Thank you.

Do you use the wet or dry mustard in your dish? I love the simple mix of ingredients. They are powerful and flavorful giving your pork dish a robust taste. I use the same ingredients you do in all my pork dishes, but I use garlic to give it a little more pep.

Hi SissieSass, I'd say that this recipe uses wet (or prepared mustard). - Natalie, Editor of AllFreeSlowCookerRecipes
