Slow Cooker Brown Sugar Sesame Pork Loin

This Slow Cooker Brown Sugar Sesame Pork Loin is full of flavor and takes only minutes to put in the slow cooker.

I found this idea in an old cookbook I was going through last week. I planned to follow the recipe exactly but found I was out of honey which was the main ingredient in the recipe. Instead this recipe is named Brown Sugar Sesame Pork Loin instead of honey. I Think the brown sugar is great in this recipe and am glad I was out of honey.

I forgot to take photos of the plated dish so you can see what this pork loin looks like sliced. But I do have a video below that shows the plated dish.

Easter is just around the corner and the crock pot is a great way to make the ham. My go to recipe is Brown Sugar Ham though I really want to try this Maple Mustard Ham from the Frugal Girls! However you make a ham in the slow cooker it always turns out great. I hope you have a great week!
