Directions: |
Directions:Season the pork with salt and pepper
You can brown the pork on all sides of the roast in a frying pan and then put it in the crock pot OR you can just put it into the crock pot. Browning it first adds some additional flavor, even though I have done it both ways. Be sure to spray the inside of your crock pot or use a liner.
Add in the sweet potatoes and onion.** See the note below.
Sprinkle in the thyme and salt.
Pour in the juice/cider.
Cook on low for 6-8 hours or High for 4-6 hours.
**Note: I recommend adding the sweet potatoes later in the cooking cycle to avoid making them too mushy from overcooking. They can be added during the last 3 hours when cooking on low or during the last 2 hours when cooking on the high setting. |
