How to make Crock Pot Pork Loin Roast
Prep: Start cleaning your pork loin. Use running water, vinegar, or a lemon water bath to rinse the meat. Pat dry your pork loin with paper towels. In a small bowl, combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, dijon mustard, garlic, paprika, Noubess BBQ Seasoning, and Noubess Hot and Spicy Mango Sauce.
Seasoning: Using a pastry brush, brush the prepared balsamic mixture over the pork loin.
Cook: Add the chicken broth, then place the pork loin, fat side up, in the slow cooker. Cover and cook on LOW for 4 to 5 hours or on HIGH for 3 hours if you are in a hurry.
Rest and Serve: Carefully remove the pork loin from the slow cooker and transfer to a serving platter or cutting board. Cover the pork loin with foil and let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing or serving.
Tips and Notes
- Cut the pork loin in half if it is too large or long for your crockpot.
- You may find a lot of fat in the meat. Do not remove it all, as the meat needs it for moisture and flavor.
- Pork is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 145F. Insert an Instant Thermometer into the thickest part of your loin and wait for the result. Another indication that your pork loin is done is when sliced and the meat falls apart. Or when you poke a hole with a knife or fork, the juices run clear.
- Do not overcook the Pork loin, as it will become dry and tough.
- Rest the meat for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
- No need to pan-sear the meat before adding it to your crockpot.
- This recipe is perfect for leftovers. Store it in an airtight container and refrigerate for not more than 4 days. Reheat properly before consuming it.
- Freezing is ideal for more leftovers. It will last up to 3 months in an airtight container. Defrosting is easy! Let it defrost in the fridge and reheat slowly on the stovetop or the oven. (do not the microwave because it will start drying out the meat.)
