Easy and delicious Crock Pot Pork Roast is a great weekday dinner. Put everything in the Crock Pot in the morning, and by evening dinner is served!
My awesome mother bought my husband and me a bunch of roasts, steaks, and hamburgers for our Christmas present this year. You know you are getting old when that kind of thing really excites you. One of those slabs of meat was a nice plump pork loin. I have never cooked using a pork loin before so I was curious as to what I could make with it.
I love *anything* I can cook in my Crock Pot. So, that’s exactly what I did. I looked on All Recipes for one that looked like a winner, but I didn’t really find one I liked, or had all of the ingredients for. Instead, I combined a few and came up with the BEST Crock Pot pork roast I’ve ever had! Here is what I did…
I started with a 4 lb pork loin. I ended up cutting it in half–not exactly 2lbs and 2lbs, maybe more like 2 1/2 and 1 1/2—and used the bigger part as my pork roast. The other half I cut into thick chops for later.
I plopped that baby in my Crock Pot and threw in some diced-up onion and 2 cloves of garlic chopped up. Then I combined about 1/4 cup of Worcestershire Sauce, 2 tbsps of lemon juice, 2 tbsps of brown sugar, and a dash of soy sauce. I also threw in some rosemary, thyme, oregano, and lots of pepper.
After mixing all of that up I poured it over my roast. I let that sit for a minute then threw some carrots on top. There wasn’t enough liquid to cook the roast in so I added about 1/2 cup of chicken broth, but you could use vegetable broth instead. I cooked the pork loin on low for about 6 hours.
Even my husband, who is not a big pork roast fan, was impressed with this Crock Pot Pork Roast. Of course, if he hadn’t been he would have just thrown extra hot sauce on it and eaten it anyway. To go with the roast I whipped up some mashed potatoes and gravy.
