My family loves to eat pork, but I am the only one that can actually cook it. Sometimes, if you’re not careful, pork can turn out kind of tough, especially if you cook it on the stove. So, I’ve found the best (and easiest!) way to cook pork – in the crock pot!
This Tangy Crockpot Pork Stew Recipe makes a family dinner that’s simple to prepare and goes well with almost anything! Plus, it only needs about six hours to cook, so if you forget to put it on first thing in the morning (like I do sometimes), you can still get it going by noon!
Tangy Crockpot Pork Stew
The tricky thing about making a one-pot stew is trying to get vegetables, starch, and protein in one meal. So, when I make this recipe, I like to use a muffin tin of homemade frozen seasoning blend to add some vegetables the easy way!
I just started mixing stuff the other night and it kept tasting bland to me. The small amount of BBQ sauce kept it from tasting like barbecue, but gave it a yummy tangy flavor!
And, since the rice is included, you don’t have to make a side dish at all! Win!
- Medium Pork Roast
- 4-6 Tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce, separated
- 1 can of beef broth
- 1 can of cream of mushroom
- 1 box of Minute Rice Brown Rice
- 1 muffin tin of homemade frozen seasoning blend
- ¼ cup Tangy BBQ Sauce,
- 2 Tablespoons minced Garlic
- Salt and Pepper to Taste
- 2-3 more tablespoons of Worcestershire.
- ½ stick butter or margarine
- Place a Medium Pork Roast in the crock pot, cover with 2-3 Tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce, beef broth, and 1 can of cream of mushroom soup.
- Cook on low heat for about 6 hours.
- Then, about 45 minutes before supper time, turn the heat up to high.
- Make 1 box of Minute Rice Brown Rice, but go ahead and put the rice in immediately with a teaspoon of seasoning blend and cook for a total of 9 minutes, don't wait for boil!
- Add the rice and the following to the pot: ¼ cup Tangy BBQ Sauce, 2 Tablespoons minced Garlic, Salt and Pepper to Taste, 2-3 more tablespoons of Worcestershire, and ½ stick butter or margarine.
- Allow to simmer for about 30 minutes.
- Serve and reap the smiles 🙂
This would be a great recipe to serve along with french bread and a green salad. Or, if your kids are craving something sweet, add a simple dessert such as one of these easy OREO dessert recipes!
