This is so easy, smells wonderful cooking and tastes even better!!! I did brown the meet before putting in the crock pot and adjusted the dijon mustard to 1/8 of cup after reading some reviews. Would add a little more next time though! Definitely a keeper!!!

I'm not a fan of pork loin - it always seems dry and flavorless to me...until I tried it with this recipe. My family loved it, it was very flavorful and it was so moist you could cut it with your fork. Excellent recipe. Thanks so much!

I really enjoyed the cranberry taste this offered and although I love mustard it tasted a little to strong for me the next time I make this I will not add as much. I also think it would taste great over chicken.

This was fantastic!!! Husband and I both loved it. He, who does not usually like cranberries, did not even realize there were cranberries in it. I did not strain the juices after cooking the pork and as someone else suggested I added 2 TBS of water to the cornstarch before adding the juices. This made the gravy perfect with just the right consistency. This will be a regular at our house.

This is a family favorite. Every time I make it for company I am asked for the recipe. We have it at least once a month, and it is always a hit with my kids.

Made this for supper tonight - but I morphed the recipe completely. I used bone-in pork chops ('cause that's what I hand on hand) and seared them in a large skillet. I mixed the sauce ingredients together and poured it over the chops to finish cooking the meat through. When the meat was done, I pulled it to a platter and thickened the sauce with a slurry. Yummy! Yummy! Yummy! I think the sauce would be great on chicken too!
