jalapeno pineapple pork roast

prep time: 10 minutes | cook time: 4 hours | serves: 4 with leftovers

3lb. Pork Loin Roast

---

1. Place pork loin roast in a slow cooker and season well with salt and pepper.

2. Add the onion, garlic, jalapeno, pineapple, ½ cup coconut aminos. Sprinkle with 2 tbsp. sugar (if using, recommended if cooking with the soy sauce).

3. Cook on high for 4 hours (or low for 6).

4. Top with fresh cilantro to serve. This roast will be fork tender but I like to serve it in thick slices, not shredded.
