"amazing pork chop"

i havent cooked/baked much this summer.. its been so darn hot! so i thought id try to use my crock pot.. and i wanted to make a pork tenderloin.. i looked up some recipes and this seemed easy enough.. however, i was lazy and didnt want to go to the store, so i substituted garlic powder for garlic and cranberry juice for wine.. lol. it turned out pretty well though.. it was kinda salty from the onion soup mix, but yea.. pretty good.. the meat was super tender!
