Slow Cooker Pineapple Pork Loin: A Mouthwatering Delight 🍍🍖
Ingredients 🛒
2-3 lb pork loin (trimmed of excess fat)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Salt and pepper
8 cloves garlic (minced)
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 23.5 ounces can pineapple chunks with juice
Instructions 📝
Prepare the Pork Loin: Start by trimming the pork loin of any excess fat, then season it generously with salt and pepper. Set it aside while you prepare the other ingredients.
Brown the Pork: Heat a large pan over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil. Once the oil is hot, add the pork loin to the pan and brown it on each side for about 2-4 minutes, or until golden brown.
Transfer to Slow Cooker: Once the pork loin is browned, transfer it to the slow cooker. Rub the minced garlic all over the pork, then pour the soy sauce and pineapple chunks with juice over the top. Finally, sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the pork.
Cook Low and Slow: Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook the pork on low for 4-6 hours. This gentle cooking method ensures that the pork loin becomes tender and juicy, perfect for slicing and serving.
Optional: Make Shredded Pork: If you prefer your pork loin extra soft and shreddable, cook it on low for 8-10 hours. During the cooking process, be sure to lift the lid occasionally and pour the juices over the pork to keep it moist. Once cooked, shred the pork with two forks and return it to the slow cooker for an additional hour.
Serve and Enjoy: Once the pork is cooked to perfection, serve it hot and enjoy the mouthwatering combination of savory pork and sweet pineapple. This dish pairs well with rice, steamed vegetables, or your favorite side dishes.
