MOW - Spicy Crock Pot pulled pork

As usual, the Meal of the Week is about enough food for a weeks worth of lunches for 2 people. This one gave us a couple extra servings to boot and is damn tasty!

Ingredients:

2 pork tenderloins (about 3lb.)
1 red onion
2 tbsp. sugar in the raw (or brown sugar)
1 tbsp. paprika
1 tsp. sea salt (kosher or table salt will also suffice)
1/2 tsp. black pepper
6 tbsp. apple cider vinegar
1 cup low sodium chicken broth (if you like salt, as I do, regular broth is fine)
2 tsp. worcestershire sauce
1 tbsp. crushed red pepper
1 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. dry ground mustard
1 tsp. cayenne pepper

Line Crock Pot bottom with thinly sliced red onion. Combine raw sugar, paprika, sea salt and black pepper in a bowl and mix well. Rub mixture on pork tenderloins and place into the Crock Pot. Now combine vinegar, chicken broth, worcestershire sauce, sugar, mustard and cayenne in a bowl, then add to Crock Pot.
Cook on low for 8-10 hours.
When done pull the pork apart with 2 forks and serve on whole wheat buns or tortillas with you favorie BBQ or hot sauce.

Pork tenderloin is rich in zinc, contains thiamin and is very low in fat. Each serving of this dish contains about 33g of protein and only 4 grams of fat!
