The secret to a nice flavorful sliced pork roast is cooking it to right around 145 degrees and giving it a few minutes to rest before slicing. I love my Hamilton Beach Set 'n Forget Programmable Slow Cooker's built in meat thermometer for recipes like this one. You can program it to cook to a certain internal temperature-- how cool is that?!?
Truth be told, a lot of times our slow cookers cook a lot faster on low than what our tried and true recipes call for... For example, this recipe called for 3-4 hours on high or 6- 8 hours on low. However, my roast was perfectly done and slice-able on lowat about 4 1/2 hours.
I always recommend that when you try something new to you, watch it closely and mark down the time YOUR slow cooker takes when trying it for the first time and then you will know how long your pot takes for a particular recipe. I find a lot of my crock pots cook a LOT faster than the time a lot of recipes calls for-- so, if you are having trouble with over-cooked or dried out food... try reducing your time a bit.
Once you slice it up, return it to its juices to keep it nice and juicy before serving.
