Step 1
Start by mixing the water, Italian-style salad dressing, and soy sauce right in your slow cooker. Place the pork roast into the slow cooker, then sprinkle the green onion and garlic evenly over the top. Cover and let it cook on low for about 8 to 9 hours, until the pork is tender and easy to shred.
Why you’ll love it
This dish is deeply flavorful and tender thanks to the slow cooking process. The smoky, savory taste makes it perfect for gatherings or a comforting family meal. It’s simple to prepare and turns a tough cut of pork into melt-in-your-mouth goodness.
How to serve
Serve shredded pork with steamed rice and a side of tangy coleslaw or pickled vegetables. It also works great in tacos, sandwiches, or even as a filling for sliders. Adding a squeeze of lime or a drizzle of spicy sauce can brighten the flavors.
Storage & leftovers
Allow the pork to cool completely before storing. Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. You can also freeze portions for up to 3 months; just thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating gently.
