Slow Cooker Pork Roast Recipe Paleo

This slow cooker pork roast recipe was by far our favorite during our paleo month.  We cooked it at least once a week and continue to cook it even now when we’re off paleo. :) If you didn’t already know… I’m terrible in the kitchen. So every month now, I try to blog a new recipe, which then forces me to learn a new recipe.

Paleo Slow Cooker Pork Roast Recipe (original recipe here):

Ingredients:

  • 2 Tablespoons ghee (or butter for non-paleo)
  • 8 leeks, whites only, thinly sliced (or 2 medium onions, chopped medium)
  • 6 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 Tablespoon tomato paste
  • 3 sprigs of fresh thyme (1/2 teaspoon dried thyme)
  • 1/4 cup dry vermouth (or substitute with dry white wine / white wine vinegar)
  • 1/4 cup organic chicken stock
  • 1 (28-ounce) can fire-roasted diced tomatoes, drained
  • 1.5 pounds of carrots, peeled, and cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 2 celery stalks, cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 2 – 2.5 lb boneless pork picnic shoulder roasts
  • Kosher salt
  • Pepper
  • 2 teaspoons Banyuls vinegar (or substitute with sherry vinegar or red wine vinegar)
  • Red Boat fish sauce (this is actually paleo, whole 30, and keto-friendly)

Directions (Serves 8):

  1. Melt the ghee or butter in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the leeks, garlic, tomato paste, and thyme to the skillet and cook until leeks are softened and lightly browned  (8-10 minutes).
  3. Add chicken broth and vermouth (or substitute with dry white wine / white wine vinegar) to deglaze the pan.
  4. Add the leek mixture, tomatoes, carrots, celery, and a splash of fish sauce into the slow cooker.
  5. Season the roast liberally with salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of thyme. Season overnight if you have time.
  6. Nestle the pork roast into the slow cooker.
  7. Cover and set it to cook on low for 9-11 hours.
  8. Remove the thyme twigs and use a large spoon to degrease the braising liquid.
  9. Added the vinegar, fish sauce, and salt and pepper to taste.
