Slow Roasted Pork Roast

Slow Roasted Pork Roast

Ingredients:
1 4-pound, high quality, free-range, organic pork roast
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 small onion, sliced
2 smashed garlic cloves
2 sweet potatoes, diced
1 cup diced tomatoes
1 bay leaf
2 cups homemade chicken or beef stock
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Directions:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a large Dutch oven, melt the oil and add your
pork roast. Sear until deeply browned on all sides. Remove and set aside.
Add onions and garlic to the pot and cook until softened. Add sweet potatoes,
tomatoes, bay leaf and stock. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to a simmer. Season
with freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Simmer for 2 hours and then turn oven down to 250 degrees and continue
cooking until roast is tender, about 2-3 more hours. Serve immediately.
Maple-Glazed Pork Roast With Sweet Potatoes
Serves 4
Natural maple syrup still contains a lot of sugar, but it’s permissible as an
occasional treat on the Paleo diet. In this recipe, it creates a delicious glaze for the
pork and sweet potatoes, enhanced by orange juice and ginger.
