Slow Cooker Amish Onion Gravy Pork Roast

Slow Cooker Amish Onion Gravy Pork Roast

Ingredients

• Pork: 3–4 lb Pork Shoulder (Boston Butt) or Pork Loin.

• Aromatics: 2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced.

• The Sauce: * 1 can (10.5 oz) Cream of Mushroom soup.

  • 1 packet Dry Onion Soup mix.

  • 1 cup beef or vegetable broth.

  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce.

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced.

• Seasoning: Salt and black pepper to taste.

Instructions

1. Prep the Meat: Season the pork roast generously with salt and pepper on all sides. For extra depth of flavor, you can quickly sear the roast in a hot pan with a little oil until browned, though this is optional.

2. Layer the Slow Cooker: Place half of the sliced onions at the bottom of the slow cooker. Set the pork roast on top of the onion bed, then cover the meat with the remaining onions.

3. Mix the Gravy: In a medium bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup, dry onion soup mix, broth, Worcestershire sauce, and minced garlic until smooth.

4. Slow Cook: Pour the mixture over the pork and onions. Cover and cook on Low for 8–10 hours or on High for 5–6 hours. The longer, slower cook time is recommended for the most tender results.

5. Serve: Once the pork is fork-tender, remove it to a plate and shred or slice. Give the gravy in the pot a good stir.

Serving Tip: This is best served over a bed of creamy mashed potatoes or egg noodles to soak up every bit of that rich onion gravy. Enjoy!
