I really wanted a Crock Pot recipe using the Pork Butt roast which is a budget stretcher compared to loins. This version turned out moist and flavorful. The original version used apple jelly instead of the marmalade. Use the one you like best. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons vegetable oil (i use wesson best blend) |
4 lbs pork butt (with bone) |
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can whole berry cranberry sauce |
1 cup orange marmalade or 1 cup apple jelly |
1 tablespoon dijon mustard |
1 1/2 teaspoons chicken soup base or 4 chicken bouillon cubes |
1 teaspoon prepared horseradish |
2 teaspoons garlic powder |
1 teaspoon dried thyme |
Directions:
1. Heat oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat.
2. Quickly sear each side of the roast in the hot oil, about 1 minute each side.
3. Place the roast in your slow cooker, fat side up.
4. If using bouillon, crush the cubes.
5. Combine the cranberry sauce, orange marmalade, mustard, soup base/bouillon, horseradish, garlic powder, and thyme.
6. Spoon the sauce over the pork roast.
7. Cover and cook on low 8 -10 hours.
