4-Ingredient Slow Cooker Late August Lifesaver
This 4-Ingredient Slow Cooker Lifesaver makes tender, savory pork loin with just four ingredients and no browning required. Let the slow cooker do the work, then serve the juicy pork with its rich cooking juices.
Ingredients
- 1 center-cut pork loin roast about 3 to 4 pounds
- 1 packet dry onion soup mix about 1 ounce; use a regular packet
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup barbecue sauce use your preferred variety
Instructions
- Place the raw center-cut pork loin roast in the bottom of the slow cooker.
- Sprinkle the dry onion soup mix evenly over the top of the pork.
- Pour the chicken broth around the roast, then spoon the barbecue sauce over the top.
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours, until the pork is tender and reaches a safe internal temperature.
- Begin checking near the 6-hour mark if your slow cooker tends to run hot, because lean pork loin can dry out if overcooked.
- Transfer the cooked pork to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
- Slice the pork and serve it with the cooking juices spooned over the top.
Notes
Store leftover sliced pork with some of its cooking juices in a covered container in the refrigerator. Reheat gently with a little cooking liquid in a covered skillet or in the microwave. Leftovers are excellent in sandwiches with extra sauce and coleslaw.
