Questions & Reviews

Diana Nordin says:

I followed the directions exactly, but the pork was very tough and I couldn't shred it. I chopped it with a large knife into small diced cubes instead. I have seen similar recipes since trying this which call for 8-10 hours of cooking time, so perhaps the 4-6 hours suggested here is insufficient to tenderize the meat enough for shredding.

Nicky says:

Do you have to cook the roast in the marinade? It doesn't seem like there's enough to cover the roast and add flavor.

Daniel says:

I actually put everything into a gallon sized ziplock bag in the fridge the night before and put everything into the slow cooker before leaving the next morning. That way I can massage the marinade into the pork loin & the flavor has the whole night to soak in.

Sue C. says:

Could you tell us what CUT of pork to use? There are many different things called “pork roast” and all have different fat content etc. which makes a big difference in the way it cooks, how moist it is, etc. It would be VERY helpful!

Cyd says:

You will want to use a pork loin or tenderloin for this recipe. Often we purchase what is on sale.
