Number Of Ingredients 13

1 boneless pork loin roast (3 to 4 pounds)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon rubbed sage
1 can (16 ounces) tart red pitted cherries
1-1/2 cups sugar

This recipe was a fail. The pork was dry and tough, and the sauce was bland. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This recipe was amazing! The pork was so tender and flavorful, and the sauce was the perfect combination of sweet and tangy. I will definitely be making this again.

The pork was a bit overcooked, but the sauce was delicious. I would recommend cooking the pork for a shorter amount of time.

The pork was a bit bland, but the sauce helped to add some flavor. I would recommend using a more flavorful cut of meat or adding more spices to the pork.
