3/4 cup

water

1/4

medium white onion, thinly sliced

2

1

garlic cloves, smashed

2 tablespoons

apple cider vinegar

1 tablespoon

Directions

1. Trim pork of all fat, keeping butchery strings on. In a slow cooker on low heat, add water, onion, chilis, garlic, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, dark brown sugar and ketchup.
2. Place the pork tenderloin into the slow cooker, and cover. Cook on low for 7-9 hours, or until pork is fork tender.
3. Remove from heat and carefully transfer the tenderloin to a large, flat dish. Reserve 1/4 cup of the pork broth (avoiding any fat), and discard remaining liquids.
4. Mix reserved broth with the blackberry sauce, and microwave on high for approximately 5 minutes, stirring halfway through.
5. Shred cooked pork into thick pieces with a fork and separate into six servings. Mix each serving with 2 tbsp cooked blackberry sauce. Serve over hearts of romaine, and garnish with parsley.
