Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Slow Cooker Pork Picnic Roast.
Step 1
Start by generously seasoning your boneless pork picnic roast with salt and freshly ground black pepper on all sides, ensuring every inch is flavorful.
Step 2
Next, place the seasoned roast into your slow cooker, creating a cozy bed for it.
Step 3
Now, sprinkle minced garlic evenly over the top of the pork, infusing it with a delightful aroma.
Step 4
Surround the roast with vibrant baby carrots, hearty potato chunks, chopped onion, and crisp celery, adding a colorful medley of vegetables that will soak up all the delicious flavors.
Step 5
Pour beef broth over the roast and veggies, making sure everything is well-coated and ready to mingle.
Step 6
Cover the slow cooker and set it to cook on High for 2 hours, allowing the magic to begin.
Step 7
After this initial cooking time, carefully baste the roast and vegetables with the savory cooking liquid, ensuring they stay moist and flavorful.
Step 8
Continue cooking on High for another 2 hours, or until the pork is so tender that it practically falls apart at the touch of a fork.
Step 9
Once your roast is perfectly cooked, gently remove it from the slow cooker and let it rest for about 5 to 10 minutes.
Step 10
This resting period is crucial as it allows the juices to redistribute, making each slice succulent.
Step 11
Finally, slice the roast and serve it alongside the vibrant vegetables and rich broth, creating a comforting meal thatβs sure to warm your heart and satisfy your taste buds.
Step 12
Enjoy every bite of this delicious slow-cooked feast!.
