Every year when summer comes to an end and the weather starts to cool off, I find myself in a serious state of food indecision: I’m ready to eat and make more comfort-food meals, but not quite ready to give up the freshness of summer, and also feeling like it’s too soon to dive head-first into the soups, stews, and slow-cooking that I love in the winter. I just want something smack in the middle.
Enter: Slow Cooker Ginger-Soy Pork. Yes, Asian! Yes, in the slow cooker! Satisfies my slow-cooking cravings, zippy enough for my summer tastebuds. (Can I say zippy? I’m saying zippy.)
I love this for an easy weeknight meal. Serve it over rice with toppings galore; steam or stir fry veggies to go with it if that’s what you’re into. I am always (always!) partial to a rice bowl, but have a hunch this gingery pork would make a darn good taco, too.
