“This light recipe is always popular with adults and children alike,” writes Radelle Knappenberger of Oviedo, Florida. “It’s an excellent ‘take-along’ meal for potlucks.”
Ingredients:
1 boneless pork loin roast (4 pounds), trimmed
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter, melted
2/3 cup thawed orange juice concentrate
1/3 cup water
3 garlic cloves, minced
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
glaze:
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon thawed orange juice concentrate
1 garlic clove, minced
1 can (11 ounces) mandarin oranges, drained, optional
Directions:
1. Cut roast in half. In a large skillet, brown roast in oil and butter on all sides.
2. Transfer to a 5-qt. slow cooker. Add the orange juice concentrate, water, garlic, salt and pepper. Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours or until meat is tender.
3. For glaze, in a small saucepan, combine the brown sugar, vinegar, orange juice concentrate and garlic. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 3-5 minutes or until reduced to about 1/4 cup. Brush over roast. Garnish with oranges if desired. Yield: 16 servings.
