Crockpot Honey and Parmesan Pork Roast

By kayjayjohnson

It’s hard to make slow-cooked food look pretty . . . and this pork seriously fell apart when I tried to take it out of the slow cooker!So don’t judge this by it’s picture . . . I promise that this recipe is delicious! My husband even said that this is one of his favorite Sunday dinners.

Ingredients

• 1 (2-3 pound) boneless pork roast
• 2/3 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1/2 cup honey
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons dried basil
• 2 tablespoons garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1/4 cup cold water

Preparation

Step 1

Spray slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray. Place roast in slow cooker. In a small bowl, combine the cheese, honey, soy sauce, basil, garlic, oil and salt; pour over pork. Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours or until a meat thermometer reads 160°.

Remove meat to a serving platter; keep warm. Skim fat from cooking juices; transfer to a small saucepan. Bring liquid to a boil. Combine cornstarch and water until smooth. Gradually stir into pan. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened.

Slice roast; serve with gravy (I also made mashed potatoes and the gravy was delicious on them!).
