Yesterday I bought a beautiful 4lb loin at Sam’s Club. This morning I discovered Big Oven and this recipe. I added celery salt, Greek seasoning and seasoning salt. I love well seasoned food. Based on the review comments, I used half balsamic vinegar and half vinaigrette. I was away from home and the crockpot time was up so I glazed it in the oven. It’s juicy and delicious. Thanks

This is soooooo good. We used leftovers in tacos. Also delicious that way.

My family enjoyed this last night! I substituted a pork shoulder roast instead of the loin, per comments below, and I added 1/4 cup more water to the crock pot. Not dry at all. I also included carrots in the pot because my family likes carrots. Thank you for the recipe!

Flavors are good. Meat was a bit dry. Would add some broth to moisten the meat a bit.
