This recipe jumped out at me because I have a pork loin in the freezer. It comes from Facebook and is originally from the Recipes Made Easy Page. Definitely an excellent Sunday supper.
Ingredients:
- 2-3 pounds pork loin
- 1 can (20 oz) crushed pineapple with juice
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Optional: Fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish.
Directions:
- Rub the pork loin with salt and pepper on all sides.
- Place it in the slow cooker.
- In a small bowl, combine the crushed pineapple (with juice), brown sugar, soy sauce, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, and ground ginger.
- Stir until well mixed.
- Pour the pineapple mixture over the pork loin in the slow cooker, making sure the pork is well coated with the sauce.
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 4-5 hours, until the pork is tender and cooked through.
- Once done, remove the pork loin from the slow cooker and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
- Spoon the pineapple sauce from the slow cooker over the sliced pork.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley if desired.
- Serve with rice or vegetables for a complete meal!
