Slow Cooker Herb Pork Roast Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Cut 24 small pockets into roast and insert garlic pieces.
• In a small bowl combine salt, thyme, sage, cloves and lemon rind.
• Rub mixture into roast.
• Pour 1/2 cup water into slow cooker/Crock Pot then add the roast.
• Cook on LOW for 9- 10 hours.
• Use the optional water and cornstarch to make a gravy with the juices.

Steps:

• Cut roast in half. Place pork and water in a 4-qt. slow cooker. Spread butter over meat. Combine the sage, parsley, pepper, garlic, oregano and salt; sprinkle over meat. Top with onion. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours or until meat is tender. If desired, thicken cooking juices. Stir in browning sauce if desired. Let meat stand 10 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Mix together herbs, garlic, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1 tablespoon sea salt and crushed peppercorns.
• Untie the pork if rolled. In a large bowl, thoroughly dissolve 1/2 cup salt and 1/2 cup brown sugar in 2 quarts of cold water. Add bay leaves and 2 tablespoons of herb mixture. Place pork in a container or strong sealable bag and add this brine to completely cover. Cover or seal well and chill for from 8 hours to overnight.
• Remove the pork from the brine (discard the brine) and dry thoroughly. Cover with the remaining herb mixture, patting it in all over, then use kitchen twine to roll up pork and secure it tightly.
• Heat the oven to 225 degrees. Prepare a triple layer of aluminum foil large enough to comfortably enclose the pork. Put the rolled pork on the foil, skin/fatty side up. Gather the foil, scrunching it over to form a loose but well-sealed parcel. Place in a roasting pan in the oven. Take the first check for the internal temperature after 8 hours. For very tender meat that can be sliced, it should be 160 degrees and will probably take 10 hours. Check more often if needed. For a "pulled pork" consistency, the internal temperature should be 200 degrees and it will take about 12 hours.
• Rest the meat 20 minutes before unwrapping completely. Warm the applesauce and the rolls. Slice the pork not too thin (removing the twine as you go) and put in the sliced rolls with some of the cooking juices and lots of applesauce.

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.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven 350°F (180°C). Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Add the garlic to the baking sheet and coat with ½ teaspoon of olive oil. Roast for 10 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool. Once cool enough to handle, mince the garlic.
• Place the Kroger® Boneless Whole Pork Tenderloin in a gallon-size resealable bag. Add the salt, black pepper, thyme, rosemary, sage, garlic powder, minced roasted garlic, Dijon mustard, and ¾ cup olive oil. Shake the bag until pork loin is well coated. Seal the bag and transfer to the refrigerator to marinate for 2 hours, or overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Remove the pork loin from the marinade.
• Heat the remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Starting with the fattiest side, sear the pork loin on all sides until light golden brown, 2-3 minutes per side.
• Transfer the seared pork loin to a 9x13" baking dish and cover with aluminum foil. Bake for 40 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for 5 minutes more, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
• Meanwhile, make the gravy: Place the skillet used to sear the pork roast over medium heat. Melt the butter and add the rosemary, thyme, and garlic. Cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Whisk in the flour and cook until the flour turns golden brown in color, about 2 minutes. Deglaze the pan with the white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Cook until reduced by half, about 45 seconds. Add the chicken stock and stir to combine, breaking up any clumps from the flour. Simmer for 3 minutes, or until the gravy thickens. Stir in the salt. Remove the thyme and rosemary sprigs, then strain the gravy through a fine-mesh sieve into a gravy boat or medium bowl. Keep warm until ready to serve.
• Serve the pork roast warm with the garlic, herb gravy, and holiday vegetables of choice alongside.
• Enjoy!
