So, here's how it turned out

So I had a pork tenderloin I sliced into 1-inch medallions and seared all the sides. In the crockpot I combined 1 jar of Heinz Pork Flavored gravy with one package of French's gravy mix and a beer. Then I put the seared medallions in the Crockpot ... dumped in a bag of carrots, a quartered yellow onion and two potatoes I peeled and cubed. Not seeming like enough, I sprinkled in some tyme.

The lid went on. The dial was turned to low and it sat there about five hours. We warmed some rolls from Costco when we got home and had a nice warm dinner together on a rainy autumn night.

Thanks to my new camera, tomorrow I plan on sharing my secret weapons for cooking up frequent family meals.
