Brown Sugar and Balsamic Glazed Pork Loin

Wow!!!  This dinner was EXCELLENT!!!!  I have always cooked my pork tenderloin in the oven with bacon wrapped around it to keep it moist.  I think those days may be over.  I cooked this Brown Sugar and Balsamic Glazed Pork Loin in the crockpot as directed and it was so delicious!  The glaze is amazing!  The pork just fell apart.  YUM!  Usually I have leftovers for lunch the next day...not this time.  My sister-in-law, Emily, has cooked this before and she serves it shredded over rice.  This is definitely a recipe that will be used often in our family!
