  1. This sounds amazing! I love the idea of honey with balsamic for pork! I've found pork tenderloin from the pressure cooker as leftovers pulls pretty well so mixed with the sauce it gives leftovers a whole new life!

  2. 5 stars
    This is a great recipe to have on hand! Great for a small party, too 🙂 The meat must be incredibly flavorful and juicy!
