Chinese Roast Pork

Today is going much smoother than yesterday (knock on wood).  So a day late here is whats for dinner tonight, Chinese Roast Pork!

Whatcha need:
1 3lb boneless pork loin
Salt and Pepper
2 tsp cooking oil
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 3-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and chopped
1/2 cup soy sauce
2 tsp packed dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons chinese 5 spice

How you do it:
Trim pork of excess fat and season with salt and pepper.  Warm oil in a large skillet over medium heat.  Add pork and brown all sides

Transfer pork to (your almighty) crockpot.  Add onion, garlic and Ginger to the skillet, stirring, until soft. I think about 3-4 minutes.  Add soy sauce, brown sugar, and five spice.  Cook stirring until sugar is dissolved.  This happens pretty quick.  Pour sauce over pork.

Cover and cook on low for 6 hours.  Remove pork to a cutting board, tent with foil and let stand 10 minutes.  Thinly slice against the grain and serve.

Best part about it, is that your house smells yummy all day!
