Tender Apricot Pork Tender is a family favorite. This wonderful recipe is from my dearest friend Regina. She always seems to come up with these simple and delectable recipes. The perfect meal to come home to after a long, busy day. Try this soon and enjoy!
Crockpot recipes usually allow the meat to cook 8 hours on low which is perfect for my daily schedule. I have discovered for those that cook for a shorter amount of time I can use frozen meat to extend the time. I did just that with this recipe and it came out perfect! Most of it fell apart because it was so tender, which is just how I like it.
