This recipe is worthy of 5 stars, only I think maybe ( and this could totally be only me that thinks this) the instructions should have included a bit of water in the bottom of the pan to keep the honey mustard sauce from burning onto the bottom. Keeping just enough water in the bottom throughout the baking process makes a really flavorvul juice that would go well with throwing some potatos in for the last 30 mins. However the combination of flavors are simple and wonderful and I am quite happy I found this recipe. Thanks V Greer :)

Used the slow cooker for this and it was delicious. I had a 1 1/2 lb pork loin. Laid it on a piece of foil (without browning it first) and poured the mustard mix over it. Wrapped the foil tightly around it and place it flat in the slow cooker, on high for 2 hours, then another 7 hours at low. Actually did this overnight. It coated beautifully and was SO tender. Used only about a teaspoon of black pepper. The only change I will make next time is to directly salt and pepper the pork all over before laying it on the foil. Easy!

This was sooo easy and sooo good! Based on previous reviews a) used 1 tsp pepper but might increase to 1 Tblsp next time, b) added water to cover bottom of pan and that was a great idea, c) covered pan after turning roast over. Came out wonderfully moist and tender. Wanted lots of sauce so diluted about 1 Tblsp cornstarch in 1/2 cup water, added to drippings and boiled. Yum, yum!
