Loved it and I wouldn't change a thing. My DH raved about this one and I'll be making it for the kids when they visit.

The meat was okay, gravy tasted like burned cheese.

This recipe was simple, delicious, and very versatile. The ingredients were normal things I would have on hand which made it economical to fix. I was able to put it in the crockpot and forget about it. With the leftovers, I shredded the roast and mixed half with our favorite barbeque sauce and made sandwiches. With the other half, I added a little broth, sliced carrots, bell peppers, and onions, sauteed and served like carnitas on tortillas. Will definitely make again!

This was the best pork loin I have ever made. Usually is dry but I had this over done and was still tender and moist and the gravy was great on the roast. My 90 year old friend had no troble eating it. Loved it.

We used less honey because it was all we had and filled in with water. It still had plenty of flavor. I'm glad we took the time to make the gravy. The smell of parmesan in the house as it cooked was a nice bonus.

So good and so easy to prepare. The whole family really like it, even my picky 17 yr old grandson. Lots of flavor and the leftovers make a great sandwich the next day.

All three of my guys love this one and asked that we have it again. I thought it was yummy too and it is on the calendar for next week! Very easy to put together anc cut down. We used less that the required ingedients as our roast was smaller and worked great.

Great! Cut the honey down to 1/3 cup. I was worried when I tried it without the gravy, but once I had the gravy it was to die for. Very VERY tasty.

I thought this coating was delicious. The piece of pork I had bought smelled a little funny when I opened it up, so I threw it away and substituted salmon for the meat, since it was all I had. It turned out super yummy! I will try this again, with pork next time :)

The meat was very tender. I didn't have parmesan so I subbed 1/2 tsp ground ginger and 1/2 tsp of dry mustard, to get the tang of parmesan. It was delicious and the gravy was to die for.

This was quick and easy to throw together with ingredients on hand. I cut back on the honey a little. Amazing flavor on the "crust" and the gravy. I will certainly make this one again!

I thought this was very good. Definitely something different, and very easy to put together! I'm sure I will make it again sometime!

I give this 4 and a half stars. I thought it was very good, my son thought the sauce was a little too sweet and my husband loved it. I thought the honey was the dominant flavor and was confused that the Parmesan was even in there. You couldn't taste it and the title of this recipe should be changed to something with "honey" in the title.

It was very good though, and the leftovers reheat really well. I served it with mashed potatoes and carrots the first night and served it with Fried Rice flavor Rice-A-Roni and a vegetable blend of carrots, cauliflower, broccoli, zucchini, and yellow squash blend the second night. I added an onion, Worcestershire sauce and fresh ground black pepper to the recipe and I browned my roast in some olive oil before putting it in the slow cooker. My roast was done in under 4 hours. Thank you for the recipe, I would make it again.

Very easy to make using pantry staples I had on hand. Would be perfect to serve to company. The gravy is delicious, although the pork roast is good with or without it. This recipe is definitely a keeper.
