Ingredients

    2 1/2 to 3 pound boneless pork loin roast
    4 whole cloves
    1/2 to 1 whole orange, cut into 8 wedges
    1 8-oz. can crushed pineapple, packed in its own juice
    3 tablespoons soy sauce
    1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
    1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Place pork roast and cloves in slow cooker. Arrange orange wedges around pork. (If cooking in 4 to 5 hours, use the whole orange. If cooking in 8 hours, use only half of the orange.) In small bowl, combine remaining ingredients; pour over pork.

Cook on high for 4 to 5 hours (or low for 8 hours) the internal temperature on a thermometer should reach 160 degrees F. If desired, juices may be thickened by mixing together 2 tablespoons cornstarch and 2 tablespoons water, then stirring it into the pineapple mixture during the last 30 minutes.

Remove orange peel.

    Used tamari instead soy sauce to make it gluten free. - 7/25/12

    Wow! This was delicious! I will definitely make it again. My husband really loved it and my daughter, who's not a big meat eater, ate 2 helpings. I think next time I'll double the pineapple, but it is wonderful as is. - 3/11/11
