Total Time: 4 hours & 10 minutes

Ingredients

  1. One Pork Tenderloin or Boneless Pork Loin Roast ~ about 1.5 pounds

    (You can pick up both from our Meat Shop)

  2. Two teaspoons kosher salt

  3. One teaspoon dried rosemary

  4. One teaspoon celery seed

  5. Half a teaspoon ground black pepper

  6. One to three cloves garlic, minced

  7. One tablespoon olive oil

  8. One small to medium onion cut into four large slices

  9. Three tablespoons soy sauce

  10. Two tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

  11. Two to two and a half pounds of potatoes, cubed

  12. Three tablespoon butter, divided

  13. One tablespoon chopped parsley

  14. Additional salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Combine ingredients #2-6 in a bowl. This will be your spice mixture.

  2. Bathe the pork in olive oil and then coat with the spice mixture.

  3. Line only one side of the bottom of the slow cooker with the onion slices and place the pork on top. Don’t let the pork rest on the edge of the slow cooker.

  4. Pour the soy and Worcestershire sauce over the pork.

  5. Do you remember that one side of the slow cooker that we left empty? That is where your tin-foil packet of potatoes is going to go. Fill this packet with the cubed potatoes and 1 tbsp butter.

  6. This is where the “set-it and forget-it” comes into play. Cook this bad boy for 3.5-4 hours on low, or until the pork reaches 145 degrees.

  7. When the pork is done, let your masterpiece rest out of the slow cooker for 3 minutes.

  8. Remove the packet of potatoes and combine with the other 2 tbsp of butter, parsley and salt and pepper.

  9. Slice and serve the pork and potatoes immediately to your hungry family!


Pro Tip
: If you’re tired of the same old potatoes, substitute with sweet potato or winter squash for a unique flavour.
