Slow Cooker Pork Roast and Mashed Red Potatoes
A simple shredded pork with mashed potatoes and veggies meal.
Servings - 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 lb. pork shoulder roast
- Salt, pepper and garlic powder
- 6 red potatoes
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 cups frozen veggies
Instructions
- Place pork roast in slow cooker with 1/2 cup of water (or you can spray slow cooker with cooking spray). Season with salt, cracked pepper and garlic powder. Cook on low for 8-10 hours.
- Scrub and cut red potatoes into quarters. Boil for about 10 minutes, until soft and "mashable." Drain water and place in bowl to mash.
- Mash cooked red potatoes with potato masher. Add sour cream and milk (I'm all out of butter, but 2-3 Tbsp butter would be good too!). Add more milk for creamier potatoes or less milk for chunkier potatoes. Add crushed garlic. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Cook frozen veggies according to package instructions.
- Remove pork from slow cooker when it's finished. Slice into 1/3-1/2 inch slices.
- Serve Slow Cooker Pork Roast with side of mashed red potatoes and green beans.

I was wondering how i could make this recipe if i don’t have a crock pot? would just a baking pan (kind you bake turkey in) cover with aluminum on it?

Can you substitute yogurt for the sour cream?
