Sharing is caring!

Crock Pot garlic balsamic glazed pork loin is a delicious slow cooker pork loin recipe that cooks all day in balsamic vinegar and garlic all day and then topped off with a sweet and savory sauce. I have made this pork loin so often I make the pork loin without the glaze and it is still amazing that way too.

A pork loin roast is a versatile and affordable cut of meat that I buy whenever it is on sale. Or buy a few when they are on sale. I sometimes also buy the large pork loins at Sam’s Club or Costco.

When the pork loin has cooked for at least six hours, I began making the glaze. I mixed together 1/2 cup of brown sugar, 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, 1/4 cup of balsamic vinegar, 1/2 cup of water, and 2 tablespoons of soy sauce.
