1 (2 pound) boneless pork tenderloin (or regular pork loin)
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.

I found this recipe on Pinterest & am so happy with how it turned out!  I made a side of mashed potatoes & the extra glaze was super tasty as a gravy!  My oldest was out to dinner with his grandparents, so I didn't get to see his reaction to the meal.  I'm guessing he would've enjoyed it...but I'll have to make it again sometime to know for sure!  :)  Do yourself a favor & make this soon!
