Servings: 8 servings
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 pork roast 3-4 lb.
- 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
Instructions
- Place the roast in the slow cooker.
- Combine the broth, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, honey, and garlic in a 2-cup measuring the up. Whisk together and pour the mixture over the roast.
- Cover and cook on low for 10-12 hours for that fall-apart, insanely tender type of meat. (Or on high 6-8 hours.)
- Prior to serving, ladle out about 1/4 cup of the juice in the crock pot and strain into a measuring cup. Whisk in the cornstarch. Add in enough juice from the slow cooker to make 1 cup.
- Microwave the cornstarch mixture on high for 30 seconds and whisk again.
- Drizzle the sauce over the meat prior to serving.
Notes
- Any kind of pork roast will work well for this recipe. I used a bone-in pork shoulder roast.
