Slow Cooker Pineapple Pork Loin

Prepare the Pork: Trim any excess fat from the pork loin and season generously with salt and pepper.

Brown the Pork: Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork loin on all sides until golden brown, about 2-4 minutes per side.

Slow Cook: Place the browned pork loin in the slow cooker. Spread the minced garlic over the pork, then pour in the soy sauce. Add the pineapple chunks along with the juice, and sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the top.

Cook:

For a pork loin you can slice, cook on low for 4-6 hours.

For a more tender, shredded pork, cook on low for 8-10 hours, occasionally basting the pork with the cooking juices.

Shred (Optional): For shredded pork, pull apart the meat after the longer cooking time and return it to the slow cooker for an additional hour on low to absorb more flavor.

Prep Time: 10 mins | Cook Time: 4-10 hours | Servings: 6
