However, that being said, having a new little one and getting back to work and my normal routine has been a challenge. Thus, the great invention of the crockpot comes into play! I couldn't survive without my crockpot! I've found a great new addition to my recipe repertoire and my husband loves it (and he is sometimes hard to please). I thought I'd share the addition of this easy recipe with all of my followers, so here goes nothing.
CROCKPOT BROWN SUGAR BALSAMIC GLAZED PORK TENDERLOIN
Note from Author: This recipe is adapted from: http://laurassweetspot.com/2013/06/12/crockpot-brown-sugar-balsamic-glazed-pork-tenderloin/
- 1teaspoon ground sage
- 1/2teaspoon salt
- 1/4teaspoon pepper
- 2cloves garlic, crushed
- 1/2cup water
- 2pounds pork loin roast
- 1/2cup brown sugar
- 1tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/4cup balsamic vinegar
- 1/2cup water
- 2tablespoons soy sauce
- Mix together the seasonings : sage, salt, pepper and garlic, and rub over the pork loin.
- Place 1/2 cup water in slow cooker, followed by the pork loin, and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours (depending on size).
- "MY QUICK AND DIRTY METHOD FOR THE GLAZE": Just before the roast is finished, mix together the ingredients for the glaze in a small saucepan : brown sugar, cornstarch, balsamic vinegar, water, and soy sauce.
- Heat over medium and stir until mixture thickens, about 4 minutes. Serve on top of roast.
- "FOR THOSE WITH THE LUXURY OF TIME GLAZE": The original recipe states to prepare glaze 1 hour before roast is done and then to brush roast with glaze 2-3 times during the last hour of cooking. You can also caramelize the glaze on the roast by lining a pan with aluminum foil and placing the roast on the pan, and then placing under broiler for 1-2 minutes until bubbly, repeating until crust consistency is reached.
- Serve with remaining glaze on the side.
