4-Ingredient Honey Mustard Pork Roast
Ingredients
- 3–4 lb boneless pork shoulder or pork loin roast, trimmed
- ½ cup honey
- ½ cup Dijon mustard (or yellow mustard for a milder taste)
- 1½–2 teaspoons kosher salt
Instructions
1. Prepare the pork
Pat the pork dry and place it in a 5–7 quart slow cooker.
2. Make the sauce
In a bowl, whisk together the honey, mustard, and salt until smooth.
3. Coat the roast
Pour the mixture over the pork, turning it to coat evenly. Place fat side up if applicable.
4. Cook
Cover and cook on LOW for 7–9 hours or HIGH for 3½–4½ hours, until the pork is tender and easy to shred.
5. Rest and slice
Transfer the pork to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 minutes, then slice or shred.
6. Finish the sauce
Skim off excess fat from the cooking liquid. For a thicker glaze, cook it uncovered on HIGH for 10–15 minutes.
7. Serve
Return the pork to the sauce or spoon the glaze over the top before serving.
