That sounds delicious! If you’re looking to try something new, here are a few seasoning ideas for your slow cooker half pork loin roast:

Apple Cider and Sage: For a sweet and savory twist, mix together apple cider, fresh sage, garlic, salt, and pepper. The apple cider will help keep the pork moist and infuse it with a nice flavor.
-
Honey Mustard Glaze: Combine honey, Dijon mustard, garlic, and a bit of soy sauce. This adds a nice balance of sweetness and tanginess, and it creates a great glaze while cooking.
-
Mexican-Inspired: Use a blend of chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and lime juice. This will give your pork roast a flavorful kick, perfect with some tortillas and fresh salsa.
-
Herb and Garlic Butter: Make a compound butter with softened butter, minced garlic, thyme, rosemary, and a bit of lemon zest. Rub this all over the roast before cooking to create a fragrant and flavorful dish.
-
Balsamic Glaze: Mix balsamic vinegar with honey, minced garlic, and some fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme. Pour it over your pork loin for a tangy and sweet flavor.

Asian-Inspired BBQ: Marinate your pork in a mixture of hoisin sauce, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil. This will add a rich umami flavor that complements the pork well.
