Ingredients for Crock Pot Pork Tenderloin 

• Pork tenderloin is also a healthy choice, as it is low in fat and high in protein. It is a great option for anyone looking to reduce their calorie intake while still enjoying a flavorful and satisfying meal.
• Teriyaki sauce is a popular Japanese sauce that is used to flavor a variety of dishes. It is made by combining soy sauce, sake or mirin, sugar, and ginger.
• Chicken broth - The best type of chicken stock to use is one that is homemade. For canned stock, I look for ones that say reduced sodium or fat free.
• Brown sugar -  Is made by combining granulated white sugar with molasses, which gives it a brown color and a slightly different taste than regular white sugar.
• Garlic, chopped - Chopped fresh garlic can take some time to chop so I often always use the freshly minced garlic that comes already made in a jar. 
• Red chile pepper, finely chopped
• Black pepper - to taste
