This fork tender roast is a nice mixture of sweet and tangy. I like to serve it over rice and the leftovers make wonderful sandwiches.Heather Campbell, Lawrence, Kansas Ingredients:
1 boneless pork loin roast (about 4 pounds) |
1 large onion, sliced |
2 cans (8 ounces each) unsweetened pineapple chunks, undrained |
1/2 cup sugar |
1/2 cup lime juice |
1/2 cup soy sauce |
1/4 cup packed brown sugar |
2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 teaspoon ground ginger |
1 teaspoon curry powder |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1 bay leaf |
1/4 cup cornstarch |
1/2 cup cold water |
Directions:
1. Cut roast in half. Place onion in a 4- or 5-qt. slow cooker. Add pork. Drain pineapple, reserving juice; set pineapple aside. In a small bowl, combine the sugar, lime juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, teriyaki sauce, garlic, ginger, curry, salt, pepper, bay leaf and reserved juice. Pour over roast.
2. Cover and cook on low for 5-6 hours or until a meat thermometer reads 160°. Add pineapple during the last hour of cooking.
