Be the first to write a review

By , About.com Guide

Honey mustard, onions, and garlic season a boneless pork roast to perfection as it slowly cooks in your slow cooker. If you want to use more than five ingredients, you could add baby carrots or some thickly sliced, peeled apples along with the onions and garlic.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 7 hours

Total Time: 7 hours, 10 minutes

Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients:

  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/3 cup honey mustard
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp. pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
  • 1 (3 lb.) rolled boneless pork roast
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 1 Tbsp. cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup water

Preparation:

n 4-6 quart crockpot, place onions and garlic. Season pork roast with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with thyme. Spread honey mustard on roast. Place coated roast on top of onions and garlic; add chicken broth. Cover crockpot and cook on low for 7-8 hours.

Remove roast and cover with foil to keep warm while making sauce. Combine cornstarch and water in a medium saucepan and blend with wire whisk. Add juices and cooked onions and garlic from crockpot to saucepan and cook over medium heat until mixture boils and thickens, stirring frequently.

Season to taste. Add more salt, pepper, thyme, or honey mustard if needed. The crockpot mutes these flavors because of its long cooking time. Serve roast with sauce.

If you have a new hotter crockpot, check the roast at 6 hours.
