Slow Cooker Pork Roast with Garlic

While I haven't jumped on the Instapot bandwagon yet, I'll steadfastly remain in love with my slow cooker.  Last Friday was one of those days I knew well in advance would be hectic and stressful. I also knew I would want to be able to come home and have a meal almost ready for us to sit down and enjoy.

Literally five minutes of prep before walking out the door, and six hours later, this fantastic roast was cooked to perfection.

Here's the process!

1 (5-6 lb.) Boston Butt

2 T. garlic salt

1 T. black pepper

2 heads garlic, peeled

2 cups water

Season the pork with garlic salt and black pepper. Place in slow cooker. Add peeled garlic cloves to the slow cooker and slowly pour in water. Cover and set to high for 6 hours. If you have a programmable slow cooker, you can use that feature to reduce the heat at that point to low or to keep warm setting.

The garlic will cook down to a soft spreadable consistency. Serve the pork over rice or mashed potatoes. Make sure you enjoy all those delicious garlic cloves.
