The Best Keto Slow Cooker Pork Loin
Our Best Keto Slow Cooker Pork Loin is one of the most delicious ways to cook pork. The pork loin is coated in a spice mixture of paprika, salt, and granulated garlic. The pork is seared in a pan before being placed in the bottom of a slow cooker, and a sauce is made from butter, grated garlic cloves, and apple cider vinegar. We love the tartness that the apple cider vinegar adds to the meat and the gravy. Once the meat is cooked, the gravy is thickened and poured over the thinly cut pork. This dish would be amazing served with a whole host of Keto and Low Carb side dishes.
How to Make It
Step 1
Combine the paprika, kosher salt, and granulated garlic in a small bowl. Pat the pork loin dry with paper towels. Dust the pork loin all over with the spice mixture. Make sure the spices are evenly distributed.
Step 2
Preheat a medium-sized skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Once hot, add the avocado oil. Swirl the pan to coat it. Add the pork loin and let it sear on the first side for several minutes. Turn the heat down to medium if it is cooking too fast and not browning nicely. Feel free to keep the pork over medium heat until a nice brown crust forms. Flip the pork and repeat on the other side. Once the pork is seared, sit it aside.
Step 3
Add in the butter and grated garlic cloves. Use a wooden spoon to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Place the pork loin in the bottom of a slow cooker.
Step 4
Pour the butter mixture over the pork. Add the apple cider vinegar to the liquid at the bottom of the pot. Place the lid on the slow cooker and set the pot on high for 4 hours.
Step 5
After the 4 hours have passed, remove the pork to a cutting board to cool slightly before cutting. Pour the liquid from the pot into a small saucepan. Add in the arrowroot powder and whisk quickly to incorporate it.
Step 6
Place the pot over medium heat and allow it to simmer until thickened. Slice the pork and then pour some of the gravy over it. Serve immediately.
