Mexican Crockpot Pork

Mexican Crockpot Pork

Linda Larsen
Tender chunks of pork loin are slowly cooked with chunky salsa and some pinto beans in your crockpot. Serve this entree recipe over fried slices of prepared polenta.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 6 hours, 30 minutes

Total Time: 6 hours, 40 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 pounds boneless pork roast, cut into 2" pieces
  • 2 cups chunky salsa
  • 15-ounce can pinto or black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Preparation:

Mix all ingredients in 4-5 quart slow cooker and cover. Cook on low 6-7 hours until pork is tender. Serves 4-6

If you'd like a thicker mixture, mix 2 tablespoons cornstarch with 1/4 cup water and add to the crockpot. Cover and cook on low 10-15 minutes until thickened.

For newer, hot crockpots cook on low for 4-1/2 to 5-1/2 hours until pork registers 155 degrees F.

So easy!, Guest Jane

Wow, this recipe is super easy and super good. It's so satisfying to eat, especially with some rice mixed with chili powder and salsa. This is a regular at our house!
