I didn't measure the sage or the maple syrup. I probably used 1 Tbsp of sage and 1/4 cup maple syrup. The pork came out super moist. It had a very nice maple and sage flavor. I served it with roasted brussel sprouts tossed with sage. Great for a weeknight meal, but could be dressed up for a nicer occassion. Would definitely make again.
