Crock Pot Pork Loin Roast

Very tender, flavorful and easy ; Pork Loin - not the long narrow tenderloin - I've used 4 - 4 1/2 lb roasts. Large onion- I used Walla Walla Sweets. Soy sauce; Salt and Pepper Chopped garlic; Vegetable Oil; Season pork liberally with salt and pepper Lightly coat bottom of skillet with oil Add chopped garlic-I used approx. 2 tbsp/enough to cover bottom. Brown roast on all sides in hot skillet - 2-3 min. Slice onion into rings. Place half the onion rings in the bottom of the crockpot place browned roast on top of the onions place the remaining onion rings on top of the roast Sprinkle 3 tbsp of soy sauce over roast; Pour in 1/2 ; 1 cup water ( I liked it best with the full cup so that there was more juice and/ or keeping the meat moist and tender when reheating) Cook on low 8 - 10 hours (a 4 1/2 lb roastwas easily pullable/shredable after 10 hours was better for slicing Cook on high 3 - 4 hrs- I've only tried the low temperature; this estimate is from the recipeEnjoy sliced with gravy and potatoes, next day on bread with gravy over it; shredded for sandwiches or in enchiladas; slice in pieces and stir fry with rice or potatoe chunk vegetables to which you've added the leftover gravy or juice. Very versatile.You can use thick cut pork chops as well instead of the pork loin,it will come out just as good.
