Week 7~ Gingered Sherry Pork Roast

I just realized I am posting two pork recipes in a row. However, I only use my crockpot in the winter months, and there are still some recipes I want to share with you!! :D

The first step involves searing the pork roast in 2 TBS olive oil and 1 clove of minced garlic. Brown all sides of the meat and set aside.
In your crockpot, place: 2 dozen baby carrots, 1 cup petite onions (I used frozen pearls) 18 baby red potatoes. Pretty, right?

Then place your seared pork roast ( 2-3 pounds) on top of the vegetables.

Combine the following for a delicious sauce:
1 cup dry sherry
3 TBS hoisin sauce
1 TBS soy sauce
2 tsp grated fresh ginger
1/4 tsp black pepper

This can simmer on low in your crockpot for 6-8 hrs. If you can, occasionally baste the pork with the sherry mixture.

The pork was VERY tender, and stll had the sauce in the crockpot to put over the meat.
