Cooking with Kristin: Pork Roast in the Crockpot

Hi everyone! I realize this is NOT a "learn how to cook" video, this is simply a "here is how I do it" video! Once upon a time I didn't have the slightest idea how to do even this so I am hoping this will be helpful to someone!
2.5-3lb Pork Roast
4-6 potatoes
1-2 onions
1 Bag baby carrots
1 package Cookery Gourmet for Pork

Old single man (50) watching this because this is exactly how my mother cooked these when I was a kid. With carrots, onions, and potatoes....... and beef or chicken broth. I just needed a refresher course before I tried it. Really just couldn't remember how long to cook it in the crockpot. Thank you. This was great!

[@kgehmvlogs]

You bet!! I am glad this helped! :)

[@losbush]

I like your style, no nonsense and real. Thanks for posting!

[@tstgirl]

Thank u so much for this. I got a crockpot but never used it. I know there are tutorials on KZbin but I always end up watching makeup stuff. Now that you've demonstrated how easy it is, I will be doing this this week. Thanks.

[@earlpierson7932]

I recently retired and am cooking for one or two. I love your videos. Great for those of us who are not great cooks. Thank you.

[@kgehmvlogs]

I am glad it was helpful! xo

[@JJ2327]

I use seasoning packets all the time, very easy and tasty. Thank you, Kristen

[@fayewren5865]

Thank you! This was very helpful and easy. And I definitely would try this with my roast that I bought today.

[@yana1hudson]

Love your personality. I want to rewatch this video over and over again

[@takeshaburneyoladunjoye5632]

Thank you much for this im doing this for Sunday dinner I'm going to use Onion soup though I taste that before and it came out awesome!!!

[@betsymarin1717]

This is my 2nd time watching this and thinking about trying! Thanks for posting ✌️

[@cindystrother7710]

LOVE CROCKPOT RECIPES THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING

[@MrRusskie007]

Thanks for the "Crock Pot for Dummies" for me to understand how to use a crock pot. This was the 1st Video I watched, and it was great. Thanks

[@kgehmvlogs]

+Nikolay Basmachnikov Glad it was helpful!! :)

[@Suteishi1991]

Thanks so much for making this video. Tomorrow is going to be the first time I attempt to make this for my kids and I can only hope it comes out like yours

[@kgehmvlogs]

I hope they loved it! xo

[@slammerjaxlive]

Helps to sear the roast in a pan and scrape all the good stuff off the pan into the crock pot. Searing it locks in the juices and helps your veggies from getting all greasy from the roast. 😀

[@rrrddd4863]

That is a good tip. Without searing it does get a bit greasy.

[@cmoore7821]

That's for beef roast. Pork roast doesn't need that step.

[@kgehmvlogs]

I am so glad you are enjoying it Corinna! xoxo Kristin

[@leoinsf]

Great recipe! Great presentation! Is pork different from beef in regards to browning the meat to give more flavor?

[@thebaldwins3]

Kristin - The Pampered Chef did discontinue those shears, however, now have the Professional Shears and the Mini Professional Shears! They do not have the handy holster, but do have a lock and cover so they are save to store in the drawer or the Knife Block! XORachel

[@kathrynmann6130]

Looks scrumptious!

[@momalovesscarlett9023]

You are so DING DANG organized!! I will never NOT be amazed by you...I giggled out loud when you reached for the scissors. I had no idea they were even there! And as much as I try to be gehm, I'm thinking you are really me :) that bun and the grey v neck old navy T? MY. STAPLE. OUTFIT :) and bob folds his own laundry?! I am seriously doing something wrong in life...

[@patsy2242]

Sounds great! Love your white crock pot! Also love that your husband folds his own laundry!! What a jewel! God bless ya!!

[@chadmiller6129]

I bet Bob's a happy guy. Thanks for the easy recipe. I'll be trying it tomorrow

[@kgehmvlogs]

Chad Miller He is for the most part!! lol Thanks!! I hope you love it! xo Kristin

[@1dovesgirl554]

My goodness, that looks delicious! My mouth is watering!

[@jeffkuipers1030]

i like how you keep it simple and easy without out all of the spices that you need to add.

[@jencordeiro6595]

I am making this tonight! Bought a pork end loin roast at the Farmers market along with our veggies. I am adding celery to ours, though. Yum! Thank you for sharing, beautiful lady ;-)

[@marvinabigby5509]

I put onn a. Pork roast and forgot the baby carrots. I use beef stock .I have been wanting to add stewed tomatoes with the carrots potatoes and green beans.anf Green pepper.i will try crockery gourmet pack.

[@cindystrother7710]

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR PUTTING YOUR INGREDIENTS UNDERNEATH SO WE CAN HAVE IT FOR LATER THANK YOU

[@candithegreat2438]

Thanks Kristin I really enjoyed your video and how happy you are. Subscribed!

[@indigo2322]

dang thanks so much! mom made pork roast for us all the time and I never got to do it myself

[@azmendozafamily]

I bought 2 pork loins that were on sale BOGO, but I've never cooked with the loin, since it's usually very lean and I know I'd ruin them in the oven. I think that I'll try this method on Friday when my kids come home from their mom's. Any suggestions on how to avoid the loins from getting too died out? I'd imagine that by putting it on low, that's one method. Thank you for a great recipe, and you have a lovely kitchen.

[@sjtom57]

Looks great. The only thing I do different is brown the meat first.

[@knockingowl4028]

Oh ok. So it's alright to brown a pork roast before hand? I have always thought that was a beef technique. Tomorrow is our Thanksgiving, so I will try that idea.😊

[@MQS11]

Looks good! I am very much enjoying your cooking vid's! Keep them coming GF! xx

[@Melanie-ix4nq]

Thanks for sharing, I have the beef packet, but haven't seen the pork packet. I didn't even know they had one for Pork.

[@SuperSimpleRealEstate]

Thanks for taking the time to show us!

[@garyfallo1]

Didn't know about this channel, I'm so glad I subscribed! Big fan Kristin! I am an avid cook since my two grown boys are always hungry! Can't wait to check out all of your other videos, xoxo Athens Gr.

[@kgehmvlogs]

Thanks so much Lena! I need to work on getting out some more cookie videos!! Thanks for being here! :) xo Kristin

[@ezriblue76]

Oh this looks SO good. Do you find the seasoning mixes are very salty? that's the main reason I don't use them and just make up my own. Aha I just raised my hand - yes I've left the house without turning on my crockpot. I notice you make a lot of references to leftovers in your cooking videos - is that not normal in the US? I personally don't know anyone who doesn't eat leftovers, and it's very common for us to make more so that we can have them. Ahh I wanted to know how it tasted. LOL. xx

[@susanhouser3676]

I’m making this for Sunday Supper Ford my kids. Love the crock pot as well as my Instant Pot

[@kgehmvlogs]

Hope they loved it! :)

[@mannydasilva1]

Ok, let me write this correctly now - "here is how I do it" works for me. This is a simple recipe but looks absolutely delicious since my last pork roast recipe went totally south. Will try this one for sure.

[@kgehmvlogs]

Cher DaSilva Thanks for watching! Kristin

[@JoEllacd]

That looks quite yummy! I have never tried that packet, and will make sure to pick one up. I also really like the McCormick slow cooker spice packet as well (beef stroganoff is a family favorite!) I love easy toss everything in crock pot stuff. It really helps out with a busy life, and adds more things into your dinner rotation! Thanks love for showing us, I really do love easy dinners. BTW we LOOOOVE the Uncle Ben's w/ greenbeans one you did. It has become a family staple that we all eat!

[@notyetanotheralias]

thank god we dont have crockpot in greece, otherwise i'd be in so much trouble! thank god you made this video before i went back to my diet, otherwise i'd be shedding bitter tears by now. i can smell it from here, you know, and it smells delicious!

[@frankiedhampton6658]

Love the video. The food looks delicious. Can’t wait to try this. Thanks.

[@pmuldrow]

Thanks for the video. I'm going to look for that packet. Thanks for sharing!

[@cdimples2]

something to try with Roast Beef....keep everything the same except Cookery Gourmet and pork. Add 1 small can beef broth, 1 packet dry Aujus, 1 packet dry Italian dressing and 1 packet dry Ranch dressing. I combine packets in the can of the beef broth and pour on top of Roast beef and veggies.

[@barbr100]

I love crockpot meals; thanks!

[@brad4908]

You keep saying ‘nothing spectacular’, but its refreshingly accessible and non-threatening for someone who’s not had the benefit of learning how to prepare food properly.

[@kgehmvlogs]

I am so glad it was helpful!! :)

[@JewelsFromVenus]

Nice video! Over here raising my hand, lol mine was plugged in but forgot to turn the crockpot on

[@isobelrobertson2117]

Thank you for video iv got this in my slow cooker right now looking forward to it x

[@kgehmvlogs]

Hope you loved it!

[@MeJessDee]

My Mondays just got crazy...I've been thinking more and more about getting a crockpot so I can start something in the AM, and have it ready to eat in the evening before I head out to swim practice. Thanks for the recipe! I'm gonna see if you have a pulled pork recipe. If you don't...I would LOOOOOVE a pulled pork crock pot recipe. :)

[@kayekog]

Enjoyed watching this. Coincidentally, I'm making a pot roast tomorrow. Wish I had a seasoning pkt but I don't. Thanks for sharing.

[@eileenokeefe3860]

You are so great to watch! You are so pretty!!! And Very “real”! I love easy recipes! Making this tonight!

[@corinnahenry9138]

I am really enjoying these cooking videos. I am getting alot of great ideas. I like to try and mix it up a bit, dinners can be a pain sometimes. LOL I am going to be looking for the seasoning packet next grocery shopping day. Thanks for sharing Kristin...and keep 'em coming! :D

[@kgehmvlogs]

I love my crock pot!!! lol I hope you had a wonderful day Michele! xo Kristin

[@UhHuhHer321]

Literally just started cooking mine with no direction to go in. You saved dinner for me 😀🤙

[@mjillmoore]

Love your cooking videos, keep em coming, especially the dinner/meal ones

[@elizabethshaw734]

With a crock pot you want to put the vegetables on the bottom and have the meat sit on the vegetables because there is no direct heat on the bottom it's around the sides. :-)

[@testfoecho]

Looks great. If I prepared this the night before, will the veggies be soggy by the time it's ready for dinner the next day. Thanks, Kristin

[@kgehmvlogs]

+testfoecho Nope not at all I do that all the time! xo

[@kgehmvlogs]

Oh good!! I hope you like it! xo Kristin

[@sunluvingal1]

I can smell the yumminess!!! Pork roast is yummy!

[@mikeTHEmanatee]

Haha awesome video. my sister better be raising her hand, she just did that this morning - hence me on KZbin seeing how to cook this thing. if this comes out better than hers, I'll make sure you get full credit! :) you're a lifesaver thank you

[@kgehmvlogs]

Ha!! This made me smile!!!! I hope you liked how it turned out!!! :)

[@rubenrenegado3355]

great video ....thanks looks really good

[@mikemmarshall8201]

That juice make a great gravy also just need corn starch or flour

[@ceciliaranger8290]

With the gravy, I like to thicken it with cornstarch or flour and serve with the food. Or save some gravy for the next day and use it to make rice.

[@kgehmvlogs]

Cecilia Ranger Great idea!! :) Kristin

[@MeJessDee]

OH YES YOU DO!! I'm gonna have to buy a crock pot now!

[@graytaylor590]

Made it today, great method and results....Thx

[@kgehmvlogs]

I am so glad! thanks so much!

[@christianubnoskye3515]

When I make my pork roast, I take and stab it all over with a knife. It gets the seasoning and flavors down into the meat instead of just on the outside. Then I season my pork roast with Tex joy, garlic powder, lemon pepper and minced garlic. I run the seasoning all over the roast, making sure to get as much seasoning down into the stab marks as I can. Then I cut potatoes, carrots and cut onions into strips instead of diced. I put them all around the roast. Pour a pouch of beefy onion mix over the top, water, and cook that bad boy for 8 hours. It comes out so moist, tender, and so flavorful. No need to add any extra salt to your plate. I always always leave my roast in the pot with the broth and juice. Nothing worse then a dry roast. Anyone reading these comments should try making it like that one day. Bet your family will absolutely love it! Of course with all recipes, make it your own! 😜

[@cosmetica529]

Looks delish - I'm a newbie cook but I will try this! Love your cooking tutorials :)

[@MicheleAfter50]

OH does that look tasty!! I haven't done any crockpot cooking recently... Its so good!! Now my salad I had for dinner seems.. not quite as satisfying! LOL!! XX Michele

[@Jalissaprayppl]

[@kgehmvlogs]

Hmm that sounds yummy!!!! :) I hope you enjoyed it!! xoxo Kristin

[@rondagoodlet5588]

Liked your recipe lots, how do I do this prep night before for Dinner on Sunday Afternoon!

[@kgehmvlogs]

+Ronda Goodlet Thanks so much Ronda!! You would just prep everything as is the night before and stick it in the fridge until you plug it in! :) xo Kristin

[@russellramsay1947]

great recipe young lady

[@kgehmvlogs]

Thank you so much!

[@kelligirl724]

Looks great! Hubby and I love roast but our boys don't so I rarely make it.

[@judybailie9566]

What if I don'f have the Crockery Gourmet seasoning packet (I dont'). Is there anything I could use as substitute, like gravy mix for pork or whatever you suggest. Thank you! Making it now so need a quick answer.

[@kgehmvlogs]

Sorry I was out of town with my church and family. Hope it worked out whoever you decided to do! :) I would have needed to know what you did have available to help :)

[@fredwood420]

Thank you. I will try this and hope you do other meals

[@helenvancevance1407]

I well cook this tonight. Thank you... looks easy.and looks good.

[@cathycombs414]

thank you ............so easy and so good too..........especially for working couples....

[@alwayswondering4051]

OH Chrissy, U-Tube has started dumping all these cooking vids on my pages and my 'save for later' library is stating to get a little out of control ! Never really worked much with pork, but yours-there looked absolutely Yummy. I was always afraid the meat would turn out dry, tough, tasteless and difficult to chew. But Chrissy, yours - your's girlfriend looked like a chocolate bar on a real HOT summer day ! A fork is all you really need. Plenty of napkins, for 2nd's, 3rd's, 4th's... OH the hell with it, I'll leave my # in the description 🙂 I make a super dinner guest ! Thanks Chris.

[@lynnwayne6132]

I recently bought my 1st pork roast & have been looking for an easy crock pot recipe. I think the only way York recipe could be easier would be if you came to my house and made it for me! Wish me luck!

[@kgehmvlogs]

+Lynn Wayne lol!! I hope it went well!! :) xo

[@lynnwayne6132]

+Gehm Time It did, thank you!

[@carminesilverado]

+Lynn Wayne -good luck ,cooking is an adventure for me just a suggestion try sauerkraut soup

[@mannydasilva1]

I really, really loved this video. "Here's I do it" works for me. Please make more videos. Even with simple things.

[@johnheather04]

I have that...I guess that's what happens when you're a nail polish hoarder, you forget what you have haha I will have to actually paint my nails with it, its gorgeous and perfect for spring!
