Making a pork roast in a crock pot is easy. Not only that, it is delicious and can be passed down as a family recipe. With the small amount of effort required for this recipe it is sure to become a family favorite, and a favorite of the cook's also!

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Pork Roast - fully thawed
  • Bag of precut carrots
  • 5 peeled potatoes
  • Three beef-flavored bouillon cubes
  1. Step 1

    Cut potatoes into quarters. About 8 medium sized potatoes are enough. If you cut too many, they won't fit in the crock pot with the roast.

  2. Step 2

    Place pork roast in crock pot. A two to three pound roast is the appropriate size. Placing it in the refrigerator the night prior to cooking it will thaw it.

  3. Step 3

    Add potatoes and carrots to the crock pot. Place them all around the roast. This will flavor them from the roast.

  4. Step 4

    Add water. The water should reach the top level inside the crock pot. It should cover the roast, and most of the potatoes and carrots.

  5. Step 5

    Drop in beef bouillon cubes. Placed them all around the roast and cover them completely by water, so that they can properly dissolve.

  6. Step 6

    Turn on the crock pot and cook for 6 to 8 hours, stirring occasionally. Turn the crock pot on before leaving the house for work or school, and upon returning the pork roast will be cooked to perfection--and your house will smell delicious!

  7. Step 7

    When roast is tender and fully cooked (no red drainage when poked, barely pink in the middle) serve and enjoy! The potatoes and carrots should also be soft.
