Easy Slow Cooked Pulled Pork

Servings 4
Cost $20

Ingredients

  • 4-5 lbs pork loin roast
  • 10 cloves of garlic, peeled and sliced in half
  • 1.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp ground sage
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 2 cups chicken or vegetable stock
For sandwiches:
  • 4 brioche rolls
  • sauerkraut
  • havarti cheese

Instructions

The day before cooking:
  • Prepare pork by making slices into the roast with a paring knife and stuffing each slice with a slice of garlic.
  • In a small bowl, combine the oil, garlic powder, sage, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper if you like a little extra heat. Rub the mixture all over the roast. Place in the refrigerator covered and overnight.
Day of cooking:
  • If your slow cooker has a stovetop function, turn on the stovetop function and brown the roast on both sides.
  • With your roast in the slow cooker, set your slow cooker on high for 4 hours, add the chicken stock, and cover.
  • After 4 hours, the roast should be tender enough to pull apart with two forks. Pull the roast and remove any fat that is noticeable.
  • Reduce the slow cooker to low and let the pulled pork simmer in the juices for at least another hour.
  • Serve and enjoy any way you like. We made yummy sandwiches and served with our Greek Roasted Potatoes (recipe below)
