ROASTED APPLES AND SWEET POTATOES

Looking for an alternative to baked sweet potatoes, I found this wonderful recipe in Southern Living magazine. It is a great side dish for pork or Thanksgiving dinner.

CROCK POT PORK TENDERLOIN WITH APPLES AND SWEET POTATOES



Crock Pot Pork Tenderloin With Apples and Sweet Potatoes image

This is easy, and slow cooked. Very tender and great flavor. Apples, nutmeg, rosemary, onions, apple cider, white wine and slow roasted. A great slow cooked easy dish. Try a salad with blue cheese dressing and some fresh rosemary beer bread and you have the perfect fall Sunday Football Meal!! I make this all the times for my pool gang. I play pool 1-2 times per week with 5 guys (the girlfriends too) and I usually cook. This is one of the meals for our Sunday night games. It cooks all day while you do other things. You don't lift a finger other than the last hour when I make my beer bread (1 pan wonder) and make a salad). Please give it a try!

Categories     Pork

Time 8h20m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 -3 lbs pork loin
3 granny smith apples, thick sliced skin on
1 bosc pear, thick sliced skin on (anjou to me is too soft)
3/4 cup white wine
1 cup apple cider (not apple juice)
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 large onions, rough chopped
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, minced
2 bay leaves
4 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut in quarters do not chop fine
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 tablespoons butter (1 to saute, 2 for the crock pot)
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Pork -- In a large saute pan add 1 tablespoon butter, 1 tablespoon olive oil and heat to medium. Season the pork loin well with salt and pepper and sear on medium heat until golden brown on all sides. Just a minute or less per side.
  • Crock pot -- Add the pork to the crock pot. To the pan with pork drippings add the apple cider and just deglaze the pan and stir/scrape up all the drippings with a spatula. Add immediately to the crock pot.
  • Add everything else to the crock pot, vegetables, seasoning, butter, apples, pears, wine, onions, sweet potatoes, etc and just cook.
  • Cook -- 8-10 hours on low or 6-8 hours on high.
  • Enjoy -- Slice thin and serve. You can thicken the sauce if you want with a little slurry of corn starch and water but I find that the potatoes and pork soak up most of the juices. The onion and apples are sweet and everything is just perfect. Just a small salad.

Smashed Sweet Potatoes and Apples image

Looking for ways to cut down on the number of dishes that require oven time on Thanksgiving, I devised a sweet potato dish that can be made ahead in a slow cooker. It's not too sweet, and it makes a perfect side for turkey or ham. -Judy Batson, Tampa, FL

Tips for Cooking Sweet Potatoes and Apples:
