Crock-Pot Roast Pork image

I received one of the original Rival crockpots for my bridal shower way back in 1974----and I still use it today! This recipe was in the little booklet that came along with it. Makes a delicious gravy (thin, not too thick). Usually make this on New Year's Day along with a second crockpot of kielbasa and sauerkraut.

Categories     Pork

Time 4h25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 -5 lbs center cut pork roast or 4 -5 lbs end cut pork roast
salt and pepper
1 garlic clove, sliced
2 medium onions, sliced
1 bay leaf
1 cup hot water
2 tablespoons soy sauce

Steps:

  • Rub pork roast with salt and pepper.
  • Make tiny slits in meat and insert slivers of garlic (or just sprinkle on some garlic powder).
  • Place in broiler pan and broil about 15-20 minutes to remove excess fat. Check frequently.(I oftentimes just brown on all sides in frying pan).
  • Mix hot water and soy sauce.
  • Put one sliced onion in bottom of crockpot.
  • Add browned pork roast and remaining onion and other ingredients.
  • Cover and cook on high for 4 or so hours. (This is how long it takes in my Westbend slow cooker). Low setting would probably be 6-8 hours.
  • To thicken gravy: Remove roast to serving platter. Blend 2 tablespoons cornstarch with 2 tablespoons cold water to form a smooth paste. Stir well and let come to a boil. Doesn't get too thick which is how we like it).
