Garlic Pork Roast

The recipe is based on a recipe from this book with the addition of a lot of vegetables.

 

3.5 lb pork boneless loin roast (I used a 1.2 lb loin roast and 1lb of pork loin chops)

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon pepper

1 medium onion, sliced

3 gloves garlic, peeled

1 cup chicken broth or water (I used 2 cups because...)

Additions to recipe

2 russet potatoes chopped into 1" pieces

4 carrots chopped

1 bell pepper roughly chopped

 

Brown the pork in a pan with the olive oil.

 

Place all the veggies that you're using on the bottom of the slow cooker. Add the pork on top. Add the salt, pepper and garlic. Pour in the chicken broth.

 

Cook on low for 8 to 10 hours.

 

The pork loin was falling apart and very juicy. The chops where I bit dry for me, but my wife actually preferred them over the pork loin. The veggies and "gravy" from this are awesome. My favorite way to prepare carrots.
