‘Amish Table King’ is what my family calls this dish—it’s a feast-worthy classic that brings everyone back for seconds!

1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork roast on all sides until browned, about 4-5 minutes per side.
2. Transfer the pork roast to the slow cooker.
3. In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the onion is translucent.
4. Add the chicken broth, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, dried thyme, salt, pepper, and paprika to the skillet. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.
5. Pour the mixture over the pork roast in the slow cooker.
6. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours, or until the pork is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork.
7. Once cooked, remove the pork from the slow cooker and let it rest for a few minutes before shredding or slicing.

8. Serve the pork with the cooking juices drizzled over the top.
Variations & Tips
For a sweeter twist, you can add sliced apples or pears to the slow cooker. If you prefer a bit of heat, try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce. For a more savory flavor, substitute the apple cider vinegar with balsamic vinegar. If you’re short on time, you can skip the searing step, though it does add a nice depth of flavor to the dish.
