Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds boneless pork loin roast
- 1 cup teriyaki sauce
- 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 3 cloves minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons sliced green onions (for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Place the boneless pork loin roast in the crock pot.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, ground ginger, and rice vinegar.
Pour the teriyaki mixture evenly over the pork roast.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and set it to cook on LOW for 8 hours or on HIGH for 4-5 hours, until the pork is tender and easily shreds with a fork.
About 30 minutes before the cooking time ends, prepare the sauce thickener. In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water until smooth to create a slurry.
Remove about 1/2 cup of liquid from the crock pot, whisk it with the cornstarch slurry, and return the mixture to the crock pot. Stir to combine. This will thicken the sauce as the pork finishes cooking.
Once the pork is done, remove it from the crock pot and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded pork to the crock pot and toss it with the sauce to coat evenly.
Serve the teriyaki pork roast over rice, noodles, or alongside steamed vegetables. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
