How to Make Slow Cooker Cajun Pork And Vegetables

  1. Trim excess fat from a 2-3 lb pork shoulder roast and cut into 2-inch chunks if necessary to fit your slow cooker.
  2. Add the chopped vegetables to the slow cooker: 1 large onion (chopped), 2 bell peppers (any color, chopped), 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained, 1 (15 ounce) can of green beans, drained, 1 cup chopped carrots and 2 cups of chopped potatoes.
  3. Pour one (16 ounce) bottle of your favorite Cajun marinade over the pork and vegetables.
  4. Add 1 cup of water to the slow cooker.
  5. Ensure the liquid level is near the top of the vegetables, adding more water if needed. Do not overfill.
  6. Cover the slow cooker and cook on high for 6-8 hours, or on low for 10-12 hours, or until the pork is easily shredded and the potatoes are tender.
  7. Shred the pork with two forks and stir it into the vegetables and sauce.
  8. Serve hot and enjoy! Consider serving with rice or crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.
