Low Sodium Brown Sugar Crusted Pork Loin

I searched online for a new pork recipe, and happened upon this.   Ed loves sweet things, so I figured it would be right up his alley, and boy was I right.  He took one bite and said "this tops the list!"  I served it with the maple pecan green beans, and they were the perfect compliment.

INGREDIANTS

1 boneless pork loin roast, 4 to 6 pounds

1/2 teas minced garlic
ground black pepper
salt-free savory all-purpose seasoning
1 1/3 cups brown sugar, divided
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup water
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
4 apples, sliced

DIRECTIONS
1) Sprinkle roast with savory seasoning and pepper, then prick the roast all over with a fork or skewer.

2) In a cup or bowl, combine 1 cup of the brown sugar, the mustard, and vinegar. Rub all over the roast.
3) Cover and cook on LOW for 7 to 9 hours.
4) Combine the remaining 1/3 cup brown sugar with cinnamon; Spread the mixture over the top of the roast. Top with sliced apples
5) Cover and continue cooking on LOW for 1 hour longer
6) If desired, pour off the remaining liquid and make into gravy
