Balsamic Glazed Pork Roast (Slow Cooker)

This is one of those dishes that is great for an easy weeknight meal or perfect if you are having company over. For us, it always turns out tender and moist…not hard and leathery like a piece of meat that has had car leather cleaner used on it. And your house, ohhh, it is going to smell so good!

Pair it with your favorite sides and you have one great meal.

And don’t let the ingredient list fool you, it is easy to throw together and tastes great!

 Simply take a pork roast (I prefer a pork loin) and rub it with the dry ingredients.

Throw it in a slow cooker, add 1/2 cup of water and cook on low for about 6-8 hours.

Once it is almost done, prepare the glaze and brush over the roast the last hour of cooking.

That is it.

Seriously!

Then, once you try it…you can use my favorite saying..

OHHH MyStinkinHeck, This is Dee-Licious!

Balsamic Glazed Pork

Ingredients:

1 (2-4 pound) boneless pork tenderloin

1 teaspoon ground sage

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

1/4 teaspoon paprika

1/4 teaspoon chili powder

1/4 teaspoon thyme

1/4 cup brown sugar

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 cup water

Glaze

3/4 cup brown sugar, packed

1 tablespoon cornstarch

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar

1/2 cup water

3 tablespoons soy sauce

Directions:

Combine all of the dry ingredients in the first ingredients together and then rub over roast. Place in slow cooker with 1/2 cup water. Cook on high for 4-6 hours or low for 6-8 hours. About an hour before the roast is done, combine the ingredients for the glaze in small sauce pan. Heat over medium heat and stir until the glaze thickens. Brush the roast with the glaze 2 or 3 times during the last hour of cooking. Save the remaining glaze so that you can add more to your meat if desired. And ummm, it’s going to be desired.
