Slow Cooker Pork Roast with Peach Salsa and Sweet Potatoes
Ingredients
- 1 boneless pork roast 2-3 lb shoulder
- salt and pepper
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 5 small sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
- ½ onion, sliced
- 2 cups peaches or peach salsa 1.5-2 peaches
- hot cooked rice
- chopped cilantro
- green onions, sliced
- jalapenos, sliced
Instructions
- Scatter the onions in the bottom of the slow-cooker. Put on the lid and set to high.
- Season roast generously with salt and pepper.
- Heat oil in a cast-iron skillet over high-heat. Place the roast in the pan and leave it in place until it releases in order for it to form a golden brown crust. Rotate to an unbrowned area and repeat. Do this until the entire roast is browned. Place on top of the sweet potatoes.
- Cover with sweet potatoes and sliced peaches. Cook on high 4-5 hours or low 7-9 hours.
