Easy Slow-Cooker Pork Roast & Veggies

Pork roast is a fave in my Homestead kitchen.  And with the convenience of the slow cooker, what's not to love?  Tender, juicy & delicious.  And I always make a lot so there will be leftover meat for other delicious meals too. #TexasHomesteader

Instructions

  1. Wash potatoes - cut in half if necessary. Place potatoes on the bottom of slow cooker.
  2. Place roast on top of potatoes. Season roast with salt and pepper, Worcestershire sauce & dried basil.

  3. Surround roast with large chunks of fresh carrots, celery and onion.

  4. Cover & cook on LOW for 8-10 hours, or until roast reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees.
  5. Arrange cooked vegetables on a platter and set the roast aside to rest for 10 minutes. It will shred easily so it's helpful to carve roast with an electric knife after it's rested.
