I'm Back and Serving Up a Crockpot Meal

It has been awhile and one of my followers, Keeley, asked me to start up my posts again. That is all it took. I have decided that it will look more like a recipe blog since I am cooking here in the Clark Castle!

Today I am going to share this amazing crockpot recipe with you. The pork loin (which I can find at our commissary) was good but the glaze....amazing!

Brown Sugar and Balsamic Glazed Pork Loin from candcmarriagefactory.com


Ingredients:
1 (2 pound) boneless pork loin (mine was only a pound)
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.

Don't skip the glaze thinking it takes too much effort....you don't want to miss this part. I served it with mashed cauliflower. So delicious and easy! I love that last part...easy!

Have fun serving this to your family and/or friends. They will think you worked hard. Let them think that....it works for me!

Glad to be back!
