Delicious Slow Cooker Pineapple Pork with the sweetness of crushed pineapple, the spicy kick of sambal oelek, plus soy sauce, maple syrup and red and green pepper. Perfect with rice or noodles.

You can never have enough Slow Cooker recipes in my opinion, especially when you know you have a busy day ahead and  when you know the last thing you will feel like doing at the end of the day when you get home is to stand at the stove for a half an hour or longer cooking up something for dinner.

That is where crockpot recipes like this Slow Cooker Pineapple Pork come in really handy, you can prep everything in the morning (or even the night before and keep in a tub in the fridge) add to the slow cooker, set it on the desired timing and set off on your way knowing that when you get home a delicious healthy meal will be waiting for you.

I often make extra when I cook something in my slow cooker too, as there is nothing better than having leftovers to freeze, I often set aside a batch cooking day here and there, especially if I know I have a busy week ahead.

If you have some friends who want to share the work. Organizing a batch cooking day with friends is a great way to make lots of yummy meals with half the chore. Plus it’s fun too when you have some good friends for company and you will be surprised how many more meals you can get cooked up in one day.

Most tend to use their slow cooker in the winter rather than the summer, but really it is ideal to use any time of the year.

When you are buying a slow cooker, it’s always worthwhile bearing in mind the features it may have. Choosing one which allows you to use the inner pot as a searing pot can come in really handy when you want to sear the meat or vegetables prior to cooking or you want to add some starch to thicken your sauce afterwards.

This Russell Hobbs Digitial Slow Cooker has those features as mentioned above as well as a digital time, with low, high and keep warm features.
