TANGY SLOW COOKER PORK ROAST

Steps:

• Arrange onion slices evenly over the bottom of the slow cooker, and then place the roast on top of the onion. In a bowl, mix together water, sugar, vinegar, soy sauce, ketchup, black pepper, salt, garlic powder, and hot sauce; pour over roast.
• Cover, and cook on Low for 6 to 8 hours, or on High for 3 to 4 hours.

SLOW COOKER PORK ROAST

Steps:

• Coarsely chop together the rosemary, sage and thyme, and transfer them to a small bowl. Add 2 tablespoons of the oil, and stir to combine.
• Score the fat cap of the pork shoulder in a crosshatch pattern, then rub it all over with 2 1/2 tablespoons salt and 2 teaspoons pepper.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons oil, and heat until shimmering. Add the pork, fat-side down, and brown it well, 3 to 4 minutes, then brown it all over, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer the pork to a large plate.
• Add the wine, garlic and allspice to the pan, bring to a simmer and reduce by about half. Set aside.
• Put the carrots, celery, onions and bay leaves in the insert of a 7-quart slow cooker. Rub the herbed oil all over the pork, being sure to push some into all the natural divisions between muscles; place it on top of the vegetables, and pour in any collected juices. Add the reduced wine mixture and the chicken broth, cover and cook on low for 8 hours.
• Transfer the pork to a cutting board, and tent with foil. Transfer the vegetables to a serving platter with a slotted spoon. Discard the bay leaves, and tent the vegetables with foil. Pour the juices into a liquid measuring cup, and let them settle for about 10 minutes. The fat should rise to the surface; spoon off as much as you can, and discard. Pour the juices into a small saucepan, and bring to a boil.
• While the juices boil, make a cornstarch slurry: For every cup of juices, mix 1 teaspoon cornstarch into 1 tablespoon cold water until dissolved. Reduce the heat so the juices are simmering, whisk in the slurry and cook, whisking frequently, until the sauce has slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir in 2 tablespoons of the parsley. Season with salt if necessary.
• Slice the pork against the grain into 1/4-inch-thick slices, and arrange on a large platter with the vegetables. Ladle some of the sauce on top. Season the meat with a pinch of salt, and garnish with the remaining 2 tablespoons parsley. Serve with egg noodles, and pass the remaining sauce.

SLOW COOKER PORK ROAST

Steps:

• Rub pork roast all over with onion soup mix and place roast in the slow cooker. Pour cranberry sauce over roast.
• Cook on Low for 8 to 10 hours. Remove roast to a platter, reserving juices in the slow cooker.
• Melt butter in a saucepan over low heat. Whisk flour into melted butter to form a paste. Pour reserved juices from the slow cooker into the butter mixture, whisking constantly, until gravy lightens in color and thickens, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve gravy alongside roast.

CROCK POT PORK ROAST

Steps:

• First, prepare your pork dry rub by mixing together all of the spices in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Then, prepare veggies. Quarter 6 russet potatoes, chop a white onion, dice 6 medium carrots into 4 pieces each, and roughly chop 4 cloves of garlic.
• Place the veggie medley on the bottom of your crockpot.
• Next, rub your pork shoulder roast with the dry rub. Make sure that every nook and cranny is covered in rub.
• Heat around 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium/high heat. When olive oil is fragrant, sear pork shoulder for 2 minutes on each side.
• Then, place the pork roast in crock pot on top of the veggies. Make sure you scrape the skillet to get all of the delicious bits of rub off of it and add that to the crockpot, too.
• Create herb bundle, by using bakers twine to tie together thyme and rosemary and set that on top of the pork.
• Next, in a large Pyrex, mix together balsamic vinegar, red wine, and chicken broth.
• Then, pour that on top of the pork roast.
• Cover crockpot and turn to high. Let cook for around 6-8 hours (flipping pork roast halfway through cook time, if you can, if you can't no worries!).
• Remove meat and vegetables from the crockpot and discard the herb bundle.
• Using two forks, pull the pork roast apart into chunks and set aside.
• Place 1/2 cup of the liquid left in the crockpot into a microwave safe Pyrex. Whisk in cornstarch.
• Place cornstarch mixture into the microwave for 45 seconds (mixture should be thick a gelatinous).
• Remove from the microwave and whisk the cornstarch mixture into the existing liquid in the crockpot until it thickens into a thin gravy.
• Place pork and vegetables back into the crockpot and mix, coating everything in gravy.

SLOW COOKER PORK LOIN

Steps:

• Trim the visible fat from the loin. If necessary, cut the roast to fit into a 3 1/2-, 4- or 5-quart slow cooker. In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, ginger, thyme and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Rub the spice mixture over the entire surface of the loin.
• In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium to medium-high heat and brown the loin slowly on all sides. Drain off the fat. Transfer the loin to the slow cooker. Combine the chicken broth, lemon juice and soy sauce in a small bowl; pour over the loin. Cover and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours or on high for 4 to 5 hours. When the roast is done, transfer the meat to a serving platter and cover to keep it warm.
• To make the gravy, pour the juices from the slow cooker into a glass measuring cup. Skim off the fat. Measure 2 cups of liquid, adding water to the juices if necessary to make 2 cups. Transfer the juices to a saucepan, reserving 1/2 cup. Stir the cornstarch into the reserved 1/2 cup of juices until dissolved, then stir into the juices in the saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the gravy is thickened and bubbly, 2 to 3 minutes. Cook and stir 2 minutes more. Season the gravy to taste with salt and pepper. Slice the roast and serve it with the gravy.

SLOW-COOKER PORK ROAST

Steps:

• The night before or up to 2 days before cooking, pulse the anchovies, garlic, mustard, salt, sugar, pepper, and allspice in the jar of a food processor until a thick paste forms. Rub that paste all over your tied pork roast, pushing it between the cracks as much as possible. (If you care about how your hands smell, you might want to wear gloves for this process.)
• If you have room to store the insert of your slow cooker in the fridge, tuck the rubbed roast into it, cover it, and refrigerate. If there's just no room, seal it into a resealable plastic bag and then refrigerate. Let it sit at least overnight or up to 2 days so that the salt and seasonings in the paste have a chance to penetrate the meat to tenderize and flavor it.
• Place the insert and the pork into your slow cooker set to low, cover, and cook until the meat is fork-tender but not completely falling apart, 7 to 7½ hours. (If it's done cooking before you're ready for it, simply remove it from the cooker, wrap it tightly in foil, and let it sit for up to 2 hours, then re-warm-still wrapped-in a 300°F oven before slicing.)
• Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 5 to 10 minutes. Remove the butcher's twine, then slice and transfer to a serving platter. Drizzle vinaigrette over the top, or strain some of the juice out of the slow cooker, drizzle that over the top instead, and toss a flurry of chopped herbs over the top to make it pretty.
