SLOW COOKER SAVORY CRANBERRY PORK BUTT ROAST



Slow Cooker Savory Cranberry Pork Butt Roast image

I found a pork loin recipe in an email from All Recipes and that was my inspiration for this. I really wanted a Crock Pot recipe using the Pork Butt roast which is a budget stretcher compared to loins. This version turned out moist and flavorful. The original version used apple jelly instead of the marmalade. Use the one you like best.

Tips:

  • To enhance the flavor of the pork roast, consider marinating it overnight or for at least several hours before cooking. A simple marinade made with orange juice, olive oil, garlic, and herbs like rosemary and thyme can do wonders.
  • Don't overcrowd the slow cooker. Make sure there is enough space for the pork roast to cook evenly. If necessary, use a larger slow cooker or cook the roast in batches.
  • Add some liquid to the slow cooker to prevent the pork roast from drying out. This can be water, broth, or even apple cider. You can also add vegetables like onions, carrots, and celery to the slow cooker for extra flavor.
  • Cook the pork roast on low heat for at least 8-10 hours, or until it is fall-apart tender. The exact cooking time will depend on the size of the roast.
  • Once the pork roast is cooked, remove it from the slow cooker and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the roast, resulting in a more flavorful and tender dish.
