Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2lbs pork tenderloin
  • 1 teaspoon ground sage
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 garlic clove (crushed)
  • 1/2 cup of water
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/2 cup of water
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl combine sage, salt, pepper, and garlic. Mix well. Rub the mixture over the tenderloin.
  2. Add a ½ cup of water to the slow cooker. Place the tenderloin into the slow cooker. Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours.
  3. An hour before the tenderloin has finished cooking. In a small saucepan combine brown sugar, cornstarch, balsamic vinegar, ½ cup water, and soy sauce. Heat over medium heat while stirring until the mixture becomes thick.
  4. Brush the tenderloin in the slow cooker 2 to 3 times during the last hour of cooking.
  5. Optional step: To get a caramelized crust, remove the tenderloin from the crockpot and place onto a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. Brush the tenderloin with the glaze and set under the broiler for 1-2 minutes or until bubbly and caramelized. Repeat 2 to 3 more times until the desired crust is achieved.
