Our friends at All-Clad in conjunction with the Today Food Club sent us a brand new, nifty slow cooker. Â This is one is serious. Â A shiny stainless steel, 7 quart beauty that was begging to be broken in. Â For its maiden voyage, I created a Sweet & Sour Pork recipe that was nearly perfect straight out of the gate, but after three tests, I can confirm that this recipe will be a hit on your dinner table. Â Granted, Blaise wouldn’t eat it in this video, but he finally took a bite in the outtakes and happily gobbled down a few more bites as I put away the cameras.
Sweet & Sour Pork
This recipe has a good number of possible substitutions, depending on what you keep on hand in your own pantry. Â Some include:
- Chicken for pork
- Canned pineapple (drained) instead of fresh
- Ketchup for tomato paste (though reduce the brown sugar to 1/4 in that case)
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger for the 1 Tbs ginger paste
- White vinegar for rice wine vinegar
As always, any questions about this recipe or others, give me a holler in the comments and I’ll get right back to you!
