I'm not a big fan of pineapple when it is warmed for some reason. I had reservations about this recipe for that reason. We all love sweet and sour, and it was a dump recipe so I decided to give it a try. I have to admit that it was amazing. We really liked it. Not only that it made quite a bit when added with the rice. Very inxexpsive recipe to feed the family.
Crockpot Sweet and Sour Pork
**1 cup granulated sugar (seems like a lot, but it mellows out)
½ cup white vinegar
4 tablespoons soy sauce
4 tablespoons ketchup
20 ounce can crushed pineapple (drained)
.
Brown the pork roast on all sides and put it in your slow cooker. Mix everything else and bring it to a boil, then pour it over the meat.
.
Cook on low for 4-6 hours or until very tender (spoon the sauce over the meat every once in a while).
NOTES:
*Walmart sells a small vacuum packed 2 pound pork roast that is perfect for this recipe. The package says "pork loin rib eye pork roast".
**Even though as noted the sugar mellows out, it was still a bit sweet for us. Especially since you have sweet from the pineapple juice also. I think next time I make it I am going to cut the sugar in half.
