Directions
- Mix together seasonings: sage, salt, pepper, and garlic. Rub over the tenderloin.Â
- Place ½ cup water in slow cooker, followed by the tenderloin, and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours.Â
- 1 hour before the roast is finished, mix together the ingredients for the glaze in a small saucepan: brown sugar, cornstarch, balsamic vinegar, water, and soy sauce.Â
- Heat over medium and stir until mixture thickens, about 4 minutes.Â
- Brush roast with glaze 2 or 3 times during the last hour of cooking. (For a more caramelized crust, remove from crock pot and place on aluminum lined sheet pan, glaze, and set under broiler for 1 to 2 minutes, until bubbly and caramelized. Repeat 2 to 3 more times until desired crust is achieved.)
