Low Maintenance Low Carb – Crockpot Pork Roast
Welcome to another Carbie Doll edition of low maintenance low carb cooking. If you’re like us, you’re on the go and want to keep things low (carb that is). The Carbie Dolls are big fans of crockpot cooking. This week, I tried a modified version of this scrumptious pork roast.
Here’s what you’ll need:
1 medium sized bonless pork shoulder roast (ours was a 4 pounder) Cost: Approx. $1.25 per pound
1 jar of sugar free fruit preserves (We used Smucker’s Peach Preserve w/ Splenda. It has a mere 5 carbs per serving and you’re basically just using it for flavoring) Cost: Approx $3.00
1 large onion- halved and sliced Cost: Approx $0.25
1/2 cup of chicken broth Cost: Approx $0.50
2 tablespoons of your favorite seasoned salt
Mix the preserves and the broth and set it aside. Rinse the pork shoulder, pat it dry and place it in your crockpot. Pour the preserve/broth mixture over the roast. Sprinkle it with seasoned salt. Add the onion slices to the top.
Cook on low for 10 hours. This part works great since I leave for work at 7:00 a.m. and get home around 5:00 p.m.
Serve it with fresh veggies (I had broccoli w/ cheese sauce) or a salad and you’re good to go!
Total Cost: Approx. $8.75 (and it fed our family of 4 with leftovers for lunch)
yum!

From all the blogs I’ve read lately, this one seems to be the most impressive – it gave me something to consider about.
Hello, I think your site might be having browser compatibility issues. When I look at your website in Firefox, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping. I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that, fantastic blog!
I do like the way you have presented this particular challenge and it does offer us a lot of fodder for thought. Nonetheless, from just what I have personally seen, I basically hope when the actual remarks stack on that men and women continue to be on issue and in no way start upon a tirade involving some other news du jour. Yet, thank you for this fantastic piece and whilst I can not necessarily concur with the idea in totality, I respect the point of view.
