Tis the Season to Crockpot Cook


Though it may not feel like it today in parts of California, 'tis the season to cook in the crockpot. Several Crockpot recipes are available online, easy to follow, and incredibly tasty. Below, i've spelled out a recipe for you that i made last night, best served with some rice and some sort of veggie, we chose bok choy, but whatever sounds good to you will do...

Crockpot Teriyaki Pork Roast
3 lbs pork roast
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp ginger
1 tbsp minced garlic
1/4 cup apple sauce
3 cups water

in a bowl, stir together all ingredients except the pork roast and pour 1/2 the mixture into the crockpot. Add to it the pork roast then pour the rest of the mix on top of roast. Start crockpot on high for an hour or two, then continue on low for 4 to 5 hours until meat is tender and yummy!

Typically i add veggies in the crockpot, but for this one i didn't because i felt it would be an overwhelming amount of teriyaki flavoring.

This recipe will serve at least 6 people, that would be about 1/2 pound of pork each, so really you could probably serve 12. Remember portion control. If you're watching your weight, use a small plate!

Happy Crockpot season!
