CHINESE BRAISED PORK (CROCK POT)
Wow, this braised pork is a smorgasbord of Asian flavors (like honey, coconut, soy sauce, peanut butter). Braising the pork ahead of slow roasting adds a nice texture to the meat. The roast sops up all the fantastic spices and juices from the braising liquid. Serve with rice and veggies for a wonderful meal.

Steps:
- 1. Put coconut oil in a container and microwave for a few seconds to melt. (Coconut oil melts at a very low temperature so it will only take 5 to 10 seconds.)
- 2. Massage pork with some of the coconut oil.
- 3. In a frying pan, add the rest of the coconut oil. Fry meat for 4 minutes on each side. Remove meat and place into the slow cooker, fat side up.
- 4. In the same frying pan, add the braising stock ingredients in with the remaining oil. Simmer for a few minutes.
- 5. Then add the remainder of ingredients and warm for 1 or 2 minutes.
- 6. Pour over the meat in the slow cooker. Cover and cook on high for 5-6 hours (or 8-10 hours on low). Baste 2 or 3 times during cooking.
- 7. Sans Crock Pot, you could also cook this in a roasting pan in a 325-350 oven for the same amount of time.
