Origin of the Crockpot

MACKENZIE MARTIN, BYLINE: Before the Crock-Pot was the Crock-Pot, it was called the Naxon Beanery, and its purpose was a little more specific. Patented by prolific inventor Irving Naxon, it was originally inspired by a Jewish stew that was slowly cooked on Fridays in preparation for the Sabbath.

Ingredients

  • 2 lb pork tenderloin
  • 1 tsp ground sage
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1 clove garlic crushed
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce

Instructions

  • Mix together the seasonings: sage, salt, pepper and garlic.
  • Rub over tenderloin. Place ½ cup water in slow cooker; place tenderloin in slow cooker.
  • Cook on low for 6-8 hours.
  • Hour before the roast is finished, mix together the ingredients for the glaze in a small saucepan: brown sugar, cornstarch, balsamic vinegar, water, soy sauce. Heat over medium and stir until mixture thickens, about 4 minutes.
