My husband doesn't like BBQ sauce, but we had a pork roast. I whipped this up in the slow cooker, and it was awesome served with broccoli and rice, and also as pulled pork sandwiches for the 2 kids and hubby for a few days without them getting tired of it! It got better and better until it was gone, so I figured it was worth sharing. You let me know what you think!

1 1/2 to 2 lb pork loin roast
6 to 8 slice bacon, uncooked (more or less, depending on size of bacon slices)

EASY, QUICK AND GOOD PORK ROAST



Easy, Quick and GOOD Pork roast image

I invented this because I cook a lot at work and I like to try new things - Everyone likes this - it also works well with a lamb roast - but not so good with beef -

Provided by dgpat

Categories     Meat

Time 1h5m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 -5 lbs pork roast
4 tablespoons of minced garlic, with oil from the jar
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Make x’s into the pork roast all over and put the garlic on- you will have to use your hands to rub the garlic into the x’s and all over the roast.
  • Sprinkle the pepper over the roast and garlic.
  • Cook at 525 for 30-40 minutes (it may smoke- you may have to turn the fan on) then lower and cook at 325 for another 30-40 minutes.
  • This is the best pork roast ever- and in a SHORT time with little fuss- I do dinners and parties and I have had people come into the kitchen to tell me that this was the BEST pork they have ever had.
  • I live alone, so when I do this at home, I use a pork tenderloin (about 1-1/2 lbs) and cut the time to 15-20 minutes for each temp.
  • If you aren’t sure- you might want to try this for the first time with a tenderloin- my grocery store has them buy one get two free almost once a month!
  • But this is GOOD!

EASY TASTY PORK ROAST



Easy Tasty Pork Roast image

I looked and didn't find any pork roast made this way. This is the way I have made a Pork Butt Roast our entire marriage of 48 years. It is easy and oh so tender, juicy and delicious. I always serve it with mashed potatoes and make gravy from the rich drippings. If you make a large roast the leftovers can be made into many other dishes...even BBQ pork sandwhiches if you simmer some of it in BBQ sauce until it is absorbed.
