Crock Pot Lemon Pork Recipe
I love a good slow cooker recipe. Mostly because I’ve been such a lazy cook these days. Throwing a few simple ingredients in a crock pot and letting it do all the work for me? I’m totally in.
Crock pot meals tend to be hit or miss with my family, but this Crock Pot Lemon Pork recipe is one we can’t get enough of! It’s one of my staple slow cooker recipes.
It’s super simple with just a few ingredients. And all those leftover juices make the best lemon, herb gravy. It’s so delicious!
We like to serve this lemon pork with a simple side salad and some buttered broccoli. And then I slather the delicious lemon herb juices over everything 🙂
If you don’t eat pork, it’s fabulous with chicken, too. I hope you’ll give this recipe a try and then let me know what you think!
Crock Pot Lemon Pork Recipe

I’ve put a pork roast on my shopping list and will give this a try this weekend.
When you suggest a lemon gravy do you mean to add something to the left over juices to make a gravy or do you mean just the relatively clear pan drippings? Do you strain out any fat? if it is a gravy, what do you mix in to the drippings?
Thanks for the good sounding recipe.
Will definitely be giving this a go. And I love pork recipes because, here in Thailand, good beef is much more difficult to get and more expensive. This one looks great. Thanks 🙂
Hope you love it, Leo!
I am making this today. I just realized it’s THYME, and I snipped and added ROSEMARY! Oops, well it’s too late now…This just gives me a reason to try it another time! Kelly, you are an inspiration to me. Thank you.
Sometimes mistakes offer even better outcomes! I hope this is the case with your Lemon Rosemary Pork, Carla! I think it sounds delicious 🙂 You’ll have to let me know! And thank you for such a nice compliment – it means so much to me!!
What a good recipe! Delisious. Thank you for sharing
