Slow Cooker Balsamic Glazed Pork Tenderloin Recipe
Oh my goodness this recipe is sooooo good and super easy!  This has quickly become one of my favorite meat dishes, and I don't even like pork all that much. 🙂
This is great to throw in the crockpot on a busy day, then come home and finish up the glaze while getting ready for dinner. I'd love to hear if you try it, definitely a new favorite at our house!

Hello!! I was wondering if I could use the pork lions (boneless)that I got cut up in steaks? Do you think that would work on this? Or would it have to be in whole? Thanks!!
