Pork Sirloin Roast With Thai Peanut Sauce Slow Cooker

---

I was going to make satay but then saw a beautiful pork roast. So i used it to make a roast that was a real hit at home. I used a 5 quart slow cooker for this. If you use a boneless roast or a different size slow cooker, your time will differ. I am guessing the number of servings. The calorie count is off, as you get a lot of bone in that roast.

Steps

---

Heat large skillet with oil.

---

Season pork roast with salt and pepper and brown on all sides in skillet.

While that is browning , combine all of the sauce ingredients except for the broth in a blender or bowl , and blend until smooth in the blender or with an immersion blender.

Pour the broth into the skillet and deglaze.

Pour into the sauce and buzz briefly to incorporate.

---

Pour over the pork roast.

---

Cover and cook on low for about 4 hours , or until roast reads 140-145 deg f.

---

On an instant read thermometer.

---

Remove roast to a platter , cover with foil and allow to rest about 10 minutes.

Buzz the sauce briefly to smooth it out , if you need to.
