Servings: 6

Preparation duration: 5 minutes

Cooking duration: 420 minutes

 

Ingredients:

1-2 large tomatoes, diced (I did not de-seed them, but you can if you prefer.)

4 medium garlic cloves, minced

1 small onion, diced

1 medium sized pork loin

1 large jar tomato sauce

Equipment:

cutting board

slow cooker

Cooking instruction summary:

Before chopping, dicing and tossing in the crock, thoroughly wash your veggies. Once you have everything minced and diced, place garlic, onion and tomatoes in the crock pot with a jar of tomato sauce. Carefully place the pork loin in the crock making sure the entire piece of meat is covered with sauce. If needed, add part of another jar or a bit more liquid (water) to the crock.Turn the slow cooker on to low. The low heat and long cooking time will make the pork really tender and will easily break or pull part when done so there is no need to cut into small pieces. Cook on low for 5-7 hours.When ready, pull apart or shred with two forks. We leave it in the crock to do this, but you may take it out and do it on a cutting board if you prefer. Either way be careful not to burn yourself with hot sauce or the edges of the slow cooker. Turn off, remove lid and let cool for about 15 minutes before serving over pasta.

Food Joke

Four surgeons were taking a coffee break and were discussing their work. The first said, "I think accountants are the easiest to operate on. You open them up and everything inside is numbered." The second said, "I think librarians are the easiest to operate on. You open them up and everything inside is in alphabetical order." The third said, "I like to operate on electricians. You open them up and everything inside is color-coded." The fourth one said, "I like to operate on lawyers. They're heartless spineless, gutless, and their heads and their ass are interchangeable."
