  • Pork roast (I use 1/3 or 1/2 of a Costco pork loin roast)
  •  Coarse, kosher salt and black pepper
  •  1 tablespoon olive oil
  •  1 large onion, chopped
  •  3 cloves garlic, finely minced
  •  1/3 cup light or dark brown sugar
  •   1 teaspoon salt
  •  1/2 teaspoon pepper
  •  1 jar (___oz) of verde/tomatillo salsa
  •  1 c. low-sodium chicken broth


Season the roast with salt and pepper and place in slow cooker. Saute onions and garlic. Add the brown sugar, and then scrape into the slow cooker. Pour the tomatillo salsa over and to the side of the roast. Add chicken broth. Cook on low for 8 - 10 hours.

Shred when ready. Serve with hot rice, either on its own, or in a burrito with black beans, etc.
