This brown sugar, balsamic glazed pork tenderloin is another of my favorite crockpot recipe. Mouthwatering with superb flavor and a great weeknight meal option if you need something easy, but delightful dinner. Simply throw everything in your crockpot, set it to cook, and in the last hour of cooking brush the roast with the thickened glaze. If you prefer a more caramelized crust, you can broil the roast and brush with the glaze a few times until you have achieved your desired crust. For a filling, incredibly delicious dinner, serve this brown sugar, balsamic glazed pork tenderloin with mashed potatoes and veggies on the side.
Ingredients

2 tbsp Soy sauce

½ tsp Salt

How to make Crockpot Brown Sugar Balsamic Glazed Pork Tenderloin
Step 1: In a bowl, place the seasonings and mix well. All over the tenderloin, rub the seasonings until completely coated.
Step 2: In the slow cooker, pour in half a cup of water and gradually add the pork tenderloin. If desired, add herbs and sauces. Set to cook for 6 to 8 hours on low.
Step 3: Into a small pan, whisk the glaze ingredients (cornstarch, brown sugar, vinegar, soy sauce, and water). Do this in the last hour of cooking the tenderloin. Heat for about 4 minutes over medium heat while stirring slowly until thickened.
Step 4: Brush the roast with the glaze during the last hour of cooking.
Step 5: If you prefer to have an extra caramelized crust, transfer the roast to a sheet and drizzle with the glaze. Broil for about 1 to 2 minutes or until bubbly and caramelized. Repeat glazing the roast a couple of times until you have achieved your desired crust.
Step 6: When done, serve the tenderloin right away with the glaze on the side. Enjoy!
