COKE PORK in a CROCK

i beg you to try this just once.

it is absolutely the best, easiest...melt in your mouth pork recipe EVER.
i know just a little while ago i wrote about the slow roasted pork and i still think that is a fabulous way to cook a pork shoulder. this is equally as good...and just as easy. this one doesn't require the huge layer of fat that is on the shoulder and, of course, it won't tie up your oven all day.

maybe not the most beautiful pork roast picture you've ever seen, but it's the only one i could get before it literally fell apart. getting it out of the cooker in one piece for the photo was quite a task. i'll bet it's even a bit blurred from the "falling off the bone" factor.

i think the "picnic" pork roast works best for the slow cooker method. this cut is usually cheap or on sale somewhere.

directions...

3-4 lb. picnic pork roast

1 can of coke (not diet)

1 package Lipton's Onion Soup Mix

1 large onion sliced thick

sometimes the roast will come with a HUGE layer of fat on the bottom...i like to trim this just a little. the fat is necessary, but sometimes there's just too much.

layer the sliced onions on the bottom of the cooker. place the roast on top. sprinkle the onion soup mix all over the roast. pour the coke in. cook on LOW for 8 hours. if you're around while it's cooking..check it after 5-6 hours and you might want to flip it over carefully. if you're not around don't worry...it's all good.

DONE !
