I made this a few days ago and have made other versions, but I like this one best. I used a 5 lb pork loin and have used other cuts previously. I actually liked the bone in thick pork chops better in the crock-pot only because I don't have to be so conscious of the cooking time as you do with loin so it doesn't dry out. Easy and pretty healthy. I like this one because as a lot of my recipes you can use the leftovers in almost anything. I am going to take the leftover pork from this and make some brown gravy and mashed potatoes this time, but have used it in casseroles and tacos, etc.
3-5 lbs pork
1 Tbsp HOT red chilli powder
1 tsp cumin
1 and a half heads broccoli
6 celery hearts
1 green bell pepper
half a bag of sliced carrots
1 sweet yellow onion
1 Cup Sunny D (or orange juice of any kind...I had Orange Pineapple Sunny D on hand)
Rub the pork with at least a tablespoon of chilli powder and a teaspoon of cumin. I used more, but I like it spicy. Then place the pork in the bottom of the slow cooker. Chop all the veggies and pour those on top. Then pour about a cup of Orange juice on top, cover and cook on low for about 4-7 hrs depending on cut and amount of pork. I used a ton of veggies because they go fast in this recipe, but its all up to you.
