Coke Pork in a Crock Pot

By broots

i beg you to try this just once.

it is absolutely the best, easiest...melt in your mouth pork recipe EVER.
i know just a little while ago i wrote about the slow roasted pork and i still think that is a fabulous way to cook a pork shoulder. this is equally as good...and just as easy. this one doesn't require the huge layer of fat that is on the shoulder and, of course, it won't tie up your oven all day.

Ingredients

• 3-4 lb. picnic pork roast
• 1 can of coke (not diet)
• 1 package Lipton's Onion Soup Mix
• 1 large onion sliced thick

Preparation

Step 1

sometimes the roast will come with a HUGE layer of fat on the bottom...i like to trim this just a little. the fat is necessary, but sometimes there's just too much.

layer the sliced onions on the bottom of the cooker. place the roast on top. sprinkle the onion soup mix all over the roast. pour the coke in. cook on LOW for 8 hours. if you're around while it's cooking..check it after 5-6 hours and you might want to flip it over carefully. if you're not around don't worry...it's all good.
