Slow-cooker Balsamic and Brown Sugar pulled pork

I almost forgot to take a picture (hence the food is in tupperware).


Original recipe from this website, I found on Pinterest, but this is my adaptation! Enjoy!

Ingredients:
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
1. Place pork tenderloin (or sometimes I use boneless pork chops, whatever is cheaper) in the slow cooker. Rub with sage, salt, pepper and garlic. Pour water over pork. Cover and cook on low 6-8 hours.
2. About an hour before cooking, using two forks, shred the pork. Drain most of the remaining liquid from the crockpot. In a small saucepan, combine glaze ingredients, heat over med-high heat until thickened. Pour over shredded pork. Turn up to high, vent lid and continue to cook for about an hour. Serve over rice.

I have made this recipe several times and it is husband...and brother-in-law approved! Any meal that I look forward to the leftovers is a keeper in my book! It now has a permanent place in my recipe binder!
