Pork Roast In A Crock Pot | Spiced Apple Roast of Slow Cooker Pork

I just love pork roast in a slow cooker - it comes out so tasty and tender.  And when you add spices and apple, a whole new dimension of complementing tastes happens - you have to try this next time you are cooking slow cooker pork roast - it's so good!

If you are in the market for a new slow cooker, and you cook slow cooker roast recipes frequently, you will be pleased to know about the best and most unique feature on this - the best selling 6 quart programmable slow cooker!  It has a built in meat thermometer. To cook this pork roast in the slow cooker, you would insert the probe into the thickest part and or into the middle of the roast, press the probe option button, choose high or low, choose 160 degrees and press cook and it's done - easy peasy!

How does the meat thermometer probe work?  Step back a step, the optimum internal temperature for a roast of pork around this weight to cook to, to be succulent, tasty and tenderly, perfectly cooked is 160 degrees.  So when your Hamilton Beach with meat thermometer probe reaches this ideal temperature, it will automatically switch to keep warm mode and weight for you to serve it up.  What a great invention!
