Savor the melt-in-your-mouth tenderness of slow-cooked pork shoulder paired with lightly caramelized roasted sweet potatoes. This comforting dish offers a delightful blend of savory spices and natural sweetness, perfect for a balanced meal that nourishes and satisfies.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Pork Shoulder
1/2 medium Sweet Potato
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1 teaspoon Paprika
PREPARATION
Season the pork shoulder generously with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Rub the spices into the meat ensuring an even coating.
Place the seasoned pork shoulder in the slow cooker. Add a splash of olive oil to keep it moist during cooking. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours until the pork is fork-tender.
While the pork cooks, preheat your oven to 400°F. Peel and cube the sweet potato into bite-sized pieces.
Toss the sweet potato cubes with a small drizzle of olive oil, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of black pepper. Spread them evenly on a baking sheet.
Roast the sweet potatoes in the oven for 20-25 minutes or until tender and slightly caramelized at the edges.
Once the pork is done, shred or slice it as desired. Plate the pork alongside the roasted sweet potatoes. Optionally, drizzle any remaining juices from the slow cooker over the pork for extra flavor.
Serve warm and enjoy this hearty, balanced dish.
