Brown Sugar Balsamic Pork Tenderloin - Crockpot

This recipe is one I can make in the crockpot which is always nice to come home to a kitchen that smells delicious.  The tricky part to this recipe, is the tenderloin turns out best if cooked for 4-6 hours.  I'm able to come home for lunch, so this works out for me.  The recipe still works if you cook it longer, but the tenderloin dries out a bit.  I would recommend trying this in a oven bag to see if that helps retain the moisture better for longer periods of time.

Ingredients:

2 pound pork tenderloin

Rub

1 teaspoon minced garlic

During the last hour of cooking, mix all the Glaze ingredients together and cook in a small saucepan until it gets slightly thick.

Brush over the tenderloin 2-3 times during the last hour of cooking, reserve the extra glaze for serving the tenderloin.
