Rating: None

Ingredients

• 4 lb Pork Loin Roast, boneless
• 1 Garlic Cloves, halved
• 1/2 tsp Salt
• Black Pepper
• 1 1/3 cups Brown Sugar, divided
• 1 Tbsp Dijon Mustard, or grainy mustard
• 1 Tbsp Balsamic Vinegar
• 1/4 tsp Cinnamon

Preparation steps

1. Gather the ingredients.
2. If the pork has an excessive layer of fat, trim it a bit. A little fat will help keep the roast juicy over the long period of cooking.
3. Rub the roast all over with the garlic halves, then sprinkle with salt and pepper, then prick the roast all over with a fork or skewer.
4. In a cup or bowl, combine 1 cup of the brown sugar, the mustard, and vinegar. Rub all over the roast.
5. Cover and cook on low for 3 1/2 to 4 hours, or until tender but not falling apart. Pour off the excess juices.
6. Combine the remaining 1/3 cup brown sugar with cinnamon. Spread the mixture over the top of the roast. Cover and continue cooking on low for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
