Ingredients
- 3 ½-4 pound pork loin trimmed of fat with just a little left for flavor
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 sprigs rosemary
Sauce:
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1/4 cup Balsamic reduction
- 1/3 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons molasses
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup chicken broth

- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dry Italian herbs
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Prepare the Meat:
- Pat dry the loin using paper towels. Next, trim out the visible fat from the top, leaving just a very thin layer that will add more flavor when cooking.
- Place a large skillet, over medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and when the oil starts shimmering, add the loin to it. Sear it for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until it is a nice golden brown color.

Balsamic Sauce:

Slow Cook:

Serve:
- Once done cooking, remove the meat from the pot and transfer it to a cutting board.
- Cover it with foil and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
- You can either slice it or shred it, serve with rice or your favorite sides.
- Garnish with fresh rosemary and chopped parsley.
