🐷 Slow Cooker Amish Pork Roast

Ingredients:

• 3–4 lb pork shoulder or pork butt roast

• 1 onion, sliced

• 4 garlic cloves, minced

• 1 cup beef broth

• 1 tbsp soy sauce

• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

• 1 tbsp brown sugar

• 1 tsp ground mustard

• 1/2 tsp black pepper

• 1/2 tsp salt

• 1/2 tsp paprika

• 1/4 tsp thyme (optional)

Instructions:

1. Prep the Roast:
   Pat the pork roast dry and rub it with salt, pepper, paprika, and ground mustard.

2. Layer in Slow Cooker:
   Place sliced onions and garlic in the bottom of the slow cooker. Set the seasoned pork on top.

3. Mix the Sauce:
   In a bowl, whisk together beef broth, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and brown sugar. Pour over the pork.

4. Cook Low and Slow:
   Cover and cook on LOW for 8–10 hours or HIGH for 4–5 hours, until the pork is fall-apart tender.

5. Shred and Serve:
   Shred the pork in the slow cooker, mix with the juices, and serve over mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or Amish-style buttered noodles.

Note:
For a more flavorful roast, try searing the pork in a hot skillet for a few minutes on each side before adding it to the slow cooker. This will give the roast a beautiful crust and enhance the flavors 🍖🔥. You can also adjust the seasonings to suit your taste—add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little heat or some rosemary for a fragrant twist 🌿.
