Looking for an easy but satisfying dinner? I’ve got you covered with these simple and delicious Slow Cooker Pork Recipes!
Oh, hi! What’s that you say? I didn’t post yesterday, and now today is almost over? Well, I’m sorry for falling off the face of the Earth for a couple days there. I was making some backend changes to The Weary Chef to make the site faster and more reliable, and I couldn’t really work while everything was moving over. I won’t bore you with the details (are you already bored?), but I just wanted to let you know what was going on. If you see anything amiss while you’re browsing around, please email me to let me know so I can get it fixed.
Moving on, you probably came here for recipes, slow cooker pork recipes to be exact. You’re in luck! Pork is one of my favorite meats to cook in the crockpot, along with beef and chicken thighs. (Keep an eye out for those roundups in the coming weeks…) I think lean meats like skinless chicken breasts can get dry and overcooked when cooked all day, but pork usually stands up beautifully to slow cooking. If you agree, I just know you are going to find a few recipes in this list that you can’t wait to try. Let me know which one you might make first! (Click the photos to see the recipes.) Let’s go…

I love making pot roast in the slow cooker, as well as chili when it’s cold outside.

That sounds delicious, Kelly. Thanks so much for stopping by!
I love my slow cooker and use it a LOT! You have some incredible recipes that I want to try.
Lately I’ve been wishing I had another slow cooker. There are times that I’m using mine for one recipe but also want to make another–especially when I’m making my slow-cooker yogurt!
This gift card would sure help!
Thanks!
Hi, Kathy. Thank you! Dual slow cookers sounds advanced. That would be great for making a slow cooker dinner and dessert at the same time too. I keep seeing slow cooker cake recipes but haven’t tried one yet. I’ve never tried slow cooker yogurt either. Thanks so much for stopping by, and good luck in the giveaway!
My favorite thing to cook is spaghetti with Italian sausage.
Ooh yes, I love that too. My favorite pasta recipes have ground sausage in them. Thanks, Kim!
My favorite thing to cook is any good bread
Don’t make me jealous, Carl ;) I can’t eat regular wheat anymore, but I’m trying to make the best of it with spelt flour and whatnot. It’s never as good as real bread though! Thanks for stopping by, and good luck in the giveaway!
I love to cook barbacoa.
Hi, Jose. I haven’t tried barbacoa yet, but I want to try the recipe I shared above. It sounds so good!
I really like to make pasta dishes, using fresh in season ingredients and making different kinds of sauces
Hi, Jennifer. I love pasta too! Thanks so much for stopping by.

Hi, Heather. I bet you make a mean pot of soup :) Thanks for stopping by!
My favorite thing to cook is chicken.
Hi, Frank! That’s a good favorite since you can do a million things with chicken. Thanks so much for stopping by, and good luck in the giveaway!
My favorite thing to cook is anything that has to do with seafood. I use a lot of shrimp when I cook dinner.
Ooh yes, I love seafood too. I grew up on the Mississippi coast and now live in San Francisco with plenty of good seafood. Shrimp and salmon are my favorites!
I like to make lasagna.
Hi, Tiffany. I didn’t like lasagna as a kid because of the ricotta cheese, but now I love it! Maybe I’ll make it this week. I have an old favorite recipes that desperately needs new photos. Thank you for the inspiration :)
i love to make bbq chicken in the crockpot because all of our kids love it.

You and me both, Ty! Thanks for stopping by!
Tacos are my favorite thing to cook AND to eat :)
Hi, Beth! I love tacos too, or just about any kind of Mexican food. Thank you!
I’m not a huge pork eater, but slow cooker pork is the BEST! (I make an exception for it) :)
It really is so good slow cooked. Thanks, Cathy!
Wow my fav to cook is meatloaf, homemade mac n cheese and tater salad YUMMY, ♥ this site
Hi, Cricket. I think I need to come to your house for dinner. That all sounds so good!
I have been trying & enjoying many of your slow cooker ideas. I would like to thank you for all the delicious & directions for my crock pot slow cooker.
Thanks so much, Joan. I’m so happy to hear that you are enjoying my recipes! :)
Love the recipes! Love the contest! I want to win!
Thank you so much, Renee. Good luck!
Wow…favorite thing to cook. That’s like picking your favorite child! I’d say my favorite thing to cook is dessert and my favorite dessert to bake would be a pound cake. It’s like basic black in the cake world. I love the ease and yet the complexity of it at the same time that hits all the right notes for those eating it. Thanks!
Hi, Linda. Yes, picking a favorite is a silly question! I agree that you can’t go wrong with pound cake. My mother-in-law uses cream cheese in her, and it is incredible. I bet you make an awesome one too :)
Love to make pizza.
Hi, Jan. I love to make (and eat!) pizza too!
Love this blog lots of great ideas for meals that taste like you worked all day at them.
Hi, Chris. Yes, I’m all about the illusion of looking like I slaved in the kitchen even though the recipes are easy ;) Thanks so much!
All those recipes look delicious! I like cooking Chicken Parm.
Hi, Dana! I haven’t had good chicken parmesan in years. Now I want it for dinner! Thanks :)
Sounds good to me now too lol :) Actually we are smoking pork roast this weekend for Garlic Pulled Pork.
Two years ago, I would most empathetically have said meat. But, I can count on one hand how many times I’ve had meat in that time period. Forks over knives, ya know. So it’s whole new experience in the kitchen these days…big fan of Indian food, so that’s where I’ve been focusing my efforts lately.
Hi, Barbara. Indian is one food I haven’t tried to cook much. We always just order takeout! I should expand my horizons and try making one of my favorite dishes at home. Thanks so much for your comment!
Any kind of Mexican food is my favorite to cook. My family love enchiladas the best.
Hi, Debra. Mexican is my favorite too, and I LOVE enchiladas! Thanks for stopping by :)
My favorite thing to cook is a pork roast.
Hi, Sharon. I hope you found a new pork recipe you might like to try. Thank you for your visit!
I am vegan and I am always trying new “global” inspired recipes. Lately I have been cooking a lot of Indian dishes.
Hi, Stacy. This roundup is terrible for a vegan, but thank you for stopping by anyway! I have a couple friends with vegan blogs you might like: Vegan in the Freezer and Jessica in the Kitchen. Have you seen those? Have a great weekend!
My favorite thing to cook is dinners. I like dinners. I don’t eat much except for dinners these days. I hate cleaning up the kitchen however. wish we would get robots to do that.
Ha, yes a robot cleaner would be nice! My husband cleans up the dinner dishes every night, which is almost as good ;) Thank you, Debra!
What a great roundup of pork recipes. Pork is probably my favorite meat to cook in my slow cooker, it’s so tender and juicy every time. Pinning these to try later!
Thank you, Joanie. I hope you found some good ones to try!
My favorite thing to cook is a beautiful beef roast because I love making sandwiches with the leftovers.
Ooh yes, you can’t beat roast beef sandwiches! Thanks for your visit :)
If I wasn’t hungry before.. now I am!! :) Great list!
Thanks, Beth!
I really love to bake – cakes, pies, bar cookies, etc. I like to cook other things, but baking is my favorite. Thanks!!
Thanks, Debbie! Baking isn’t really my strong suit, but I did make some cookies today that I can’t wait to share next week!
Oh my gosh, so much goodness in one spot that I don’t even know where to begin! Maybe that beautifully glazed Asian Pork tenderloin…mmmm…..
Yes, that one looks so good! Thanks, Heather!
What a great idea for a roundup!!! These are ALL calling my name!
Thank you, Becky!
Andi, those brown sugar pork ribs are calling my name! Your entire round-up looks absolutely mouth-watering!
Thanks so much, Sara!!
My favorite thing to cook is my husband’s favorite “Crunchy Chicken” Casserole. He loves it!
What do you put on top to make it crunchy? I see you have a blog, so I’m going to go look to see if you have the recipe posted. I always need gluten free recipes! Thanks, Katie :)
As much as I enjoy cooking, I like to bake even more. And I think my favorite thing to bake is scones; I love handling the dough and the magic of their rise, and I love eating them, too!
Ooh yes scones are delicious. Do you prefer sweet or savory scones? I’ll gladly take either, but I like cheese scones the best. Thanks, Anne!
I’m going to have to go with sweet scones, although I do like savory ones, too. But mornings are not my best time of day, and having a nice home baked scone that I can just pick up and eat is perfect. Actually, now that I think about it, another reason I like scones is that they’re not too sweet, like muffins can be. Hmmmm… I think I’m going to have to bake some scones today. Ha!
I love making casseroles, and anything in the slow cooker! They’re usually fairly easy to put together and soo tasty .
We like the same kinds of things, Stacey. Casseroles and slow cooker meals are some of my favorites!
I love making homemade pasta and homemade sauce.
I need to come to your house for dinner, Karen :)
I love cooking and find it a very satisfying creative release. It’s difficult to pick favorite but if pressed the first things that com to mind are stir-fries. I also love making braises such as lamb shanks.
It sounds like you are a really good cook. Thanks for stopping by, Kamla!
I love baking. Half moon cookies are my favorite.
I’ll have to look those up. Thank you, Sandra!
Love this round up Andi! I’m with you, sometimes chicken in the crock doesn’t cut it. I need to try that pork and beans one you have up there! Looks good :) Thanks for linking up to my Asian pork!
Glad you like it, Karen. I want to try your pork recipe (and the balsamic vinegar one too). Thank you!
I am literally salivating as I read through these! Yum! thank you
So glad you found some recipes you like, Julie. Thank you!
these recipes came at the perfect time since pork has been on sale alot.
and beef has gotten so expensive
I hope you find a new favorite in the list, Geralyn. Thank you!
My favorite thing to cook is slow cooker meals. I love that I can come home after a busy day and know dinner is ready.
Hi, Kristen. I agree, you can’t beat the convenience of the slow cooker for busy days!
Perfect timing! I just bought some pork yesterday and planned to whip out the slow cooker! Now I have to decide which recipe to make first. One of my favourite pork recipes to make in the slow cooker is pork chops (I prefer to make pork tenderloin in the oven.)
I don’t think I’ve tried pork chops in the slow cooker, but now I’ll have to make them soon! Thanks, Kacey :)
I don’t have a favorite to cook- I really enjoy cooking! I do love slow cooker recipes though- such a time (and frustration) server for those busy days! Thanks for these recipes- I’ve already picked a couple to try out!
Hi, Amy. Yes, it’s too hard to pick a favorite to cook. I’m happy to hear you found some new recipes to try. Have a great weekend!
I’ve always loved crock pot pork recipes. I find that a little liquid smoke adds just enough “something extra” to any dish.
Hi, Pete. I added liquid smoke to burgers once, and I think I overdid it. I’ve been nervous to use it ever since! I’ll have to give it a try again in the slow cooker next time. Thank you!
This give away is perfect considering how much I use a slow cooker and cruise Amazon. Hope I get picked!
I have a serious Amazon problem, too. Thanks, Chris, and good luck!
I love making pork in my slow cooker because it always turns our tender and juicy. When I’ve tried making in a skillet, it usually ends up too dry. These all sound delicious!
Thanks so much, Tonia!
I love to cook Spaghetti with meat balls.
Hi, Kelly. I love that classic too. Thanks for stopping by!
OMG – I wasn’t hungry before but now I’m absolutely starving!!! Thanks for that! :) A great collection, thanks Andi!
I’m happy you like this one, Angie. Thank you!
I like to slow cook boneless, skinless chicken thighs. My fav is w/ Coconut milk,Peanut Butter & Sriracha.
Hi. That is such a great idea and sounds easy too! Thank you :)
I’m a huge slow cooker fan.I love any kind of pasta dishes.thanks so very much for sharing.
Thank you, Anita!
Thank you for the pork chili verde recipe–it looks fantastic!!
You’re so welcome, Elaine. I hope you enjoy it!
Love Pork! Love Crock Pots! Love Pork in Crock Pots!!!
This made me laugh. I love your enthusiasm, Shelley! Thank you :)
I love this website, as I never knew so many creative recipes for the slow cooker existed, that tasted as good as they look
Thank you so much. I’m happy you found some new recipes to try!
I love using my slow cooker! It’s great to have it doing all the work for me while I’m at work myself! A favorite slow cooker dish in my house is chile verde pulled pork tacos!
I love Mexican food, and anything with salsa verde is definitely my favorite. I bet your tacos are delicious, Sarah!
I love cooking curries, Indian and Japanese versions.
Hi, Sarah. I have only made Thai curries. I need to branch out!
That’s hard for me there are so many dishes I love to make……….but I guess if I had to pick just one I would have to say my Lasagna everyone begs me to make it.
Ooh, lasagna is always a winner. Yours must be wonderful if people are begging for it, Sandra!
I love cooking! I will try all recipes!
I like your attitude, Marsha! It sounds like you have more energy than I do ;) Thank you!
I’m not much of a cook, but I do enjoy making and eating tacos, so some of those slow cooker recipes will come in handy! Thanks for the giveaway and all of the yummy recipes!
Thank you, ELF. Good luck in the giveaway!
