Рецепт Slow Cooker Maple Roasted Pork with Potatoes
Slow Cooker Maple Roasted Pork with PotatesDoes your slow cooker get cobwebs on it during summer? Dust that baby off and make this great maple-flavored roast pork!
This delicious roast pork with sweet and white potatoes cooks entirely in the slow cooker. Yes you can roast in it and it's the perfect summer appliance!
Your crock pot is a great appliance to use in the summer because it doesn't heat your kitchen. I've also discovered that it can be used for more than the standard stews, soups and pot roast. I began experimenting with roasting (and yes BAKING) in it, and it works like a charm. To roast, you do exactly like you do it in a regular oven--resist the urge to add any liquid. Cook on HI, drain off any liquid that accumulates, and you've got it.
Roasts right in your slow cookerA meal such as this roast pork with potatoes is a classic fall meal. But I wanted to enjoy this in the summer--there comes a point where BBQ and everything that goes with it becomes tiresome and you want some comfort food.
I actually made this for my neighbor who recently had knee surgery and is still in the rehab facility. She and her hubby often eat together there and "guests" have facilities not available to them in a regular hospital--like kitchenettes and microwaves--so they can have a hearty feast on this with a break from "hospital" food. My neighbor's hubby is Canadian so ANYTHING with maple in it, he loves, so this is sure to be a hit.
