This recipe is one of my very favorite slow cooker recipes! The meat was so flavorful and moist. We all LOVED it! The hardest part is brushing on the glaze!
I would have cut off a piece to show the lovely insides, but it was so moist it would have just fallen apart! :)
Brown Sugar and Balsamic Glazed Pork Loin
(Recipe from C and C Marriage Factory)
Ingredients:
1 (2 pound) boneless pork loin
1 teaspoon ground sage
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 clove garlic, crushed
1/2 cup water
Glaze
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons soy sauce
Directions:
Combine sage, salt, pepper and garlic. Rub over roast. Place in slow cooker with 1/2 cup water. Cook on low for 6-8 hours. About 1 hour before roast is done, combine ingredients for glaze in small sauce pan. Heat and stir until mixture thickens. Brush roast with glaze 2 or 3 times during the last hour of cooking. Serve with remaining glaze on the side.
This looks and sounds fabulous! Anything with balsamic vinegar rocks in my world! :) Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteAnother slow cooker meal--LOVE those! This sounds awesome. I love that my list of recipes are growing at a rapid speed--thanks to you gals. :)
ReplyDeleteSo glad you posted this! I'm doing some freezer "cooking" today and needed another pork recipe to use the rest of my pork. I made the rub by putting all the ingredients in a plastic bag and shaking it all together, then I added the pork to freeze that. I then made the glaze and sprayed a muffin pan and poured the glaze in the muffin tins to freeze so that I can just pop a couple in the microwave to use the night we're doing it. I'm hoping it works! :)
ReplyDeleteI made this tonight and it was great! My husband and 2 and 4 year old boys had clean plates. I only cooked the tenderloin for 5 hours and that was more than enought time. Next time I would double the glaze recipe so I could use more after it is plated. It was soooo yummy! Thanks for a great and super easy recipe!
ReplyDeleteI made this tonight....so very good. I kind of suck at glazes, and the aroma from the crock pot was killing me so I think I was far too impatient to let it thicken all the way!!!
