Brown Sugar and Balsamic Glazed Pork Loin

Last night was another crock-pot dinner night. I don't usually do back to back crock-pot meals, but I found this recipe (again, on Pinterest) and really wanted to try it. I love anything with the word balsamic in it, and this was no exception!

Ingredients
1 (2 pound) pork loin *I used bone-in, the bone fell right out when it was done.
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon minced garlic
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 basil, 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 a 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.

I of course forgot to charge my camera, and therefore have no pictures.
