Recipe Tips

  • Can I use other cuts of pork? Yes, pork loin or pork shoulder both work, but shoulder gives the juiciest results.
  • Do I need to brown the pork first? Not necessary for this recipe—the slow cooker keeps it moist and tender.
  • How to make this dairy-free: Substitute with dairy-free cream cheese and a dairy-free condensed soup alternative.
  • Can I add more veggies? Yes, carrots or green beans can be added along with the potatoes.
  • Thicken the sauce: If the sauce is too thin, stir in a cornstarch slurry at the end and cook on HIGH for 10 minutes.
