Ingredients
- 5 pound pork shoulder
- 1 yellow onion diced
- 1 cup carrot about 3 carrots, diced
- 1 cup celery about 3 stalks, diced
- 1 cup red wine dry
- ½ cup water
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 can crushed tomatoes 28 oz
- 1 can tomato paste 6 oz
- 2 Tablespoons rosemary chopped, fresh
- 6 thyme sprigs, fresh
- 4 sage sprigs, fresh
- 1 Tablespoon basil fresh, chopped
- 1 pound pappardelle pasta cooked, fresh
Instructions
- In a large slow cooker, add pork shoulder. Top with diced onion, carrots, and celery.
- Pour wine and water over the top. Add garlic, tomatoes, tomato paste, rosemary, thyme, sage, and basil.
- Cover and cook on low for 8 hours.
- Remove sage and thyme sprigs from crockpot.
- Remove the pork, shred, and return to slow cooker. Stir to combine and serve over warm pasta. ENJOY.
Notes
- Pork shoulder or pork butt is best for this recipe. With or without the bone is fine.
- We love leaving larger chunks of pork in the ragu sauce. Not completely shredding it.
- I highly recommend using fresh herbs. The flavor can't quite by matched by their dried counterparts.
- Cook on LOW. This is not a slow cooker recipe that does well on the high setting. You want hours of slow cooking time to allow the pork to break down and fully absorb the flavors of the garlic, herbs and wine.
