Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 white onion halved and sliced, large
  • 6 garlic chopped, cloves
  • 1/2 cup celery chopped
  • 1/2 cup carrot chopped
  • 2 tablespoons parsley roughly chopped, flat leaf, fresh
  • 28 ounces diced tomatoes petite; canned
  • 24 ounces tomato paste canned
  • 1/2 cup red wine
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning homemade
  • 3 bay leaf small
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt coarse
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper ground
  • 3-4 pork roast excess fat trimmed, boneless
  • 5 inch kale ribs leaves removed and roughly torn
  • 3 tablespoons butter unsalted
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch , if needed
  • pasta cooked to package directions, of choice

Instructions

  1. Combine the onion, garlic, celery, carrots parsley, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, red wine, Italian seasoning, bay leaves, salt and pepper in the slow cooker pot. Place the roast in the top and spoon some of the tomato mixture over the top. Set the slow cooker for low for 6 hours.
  2. Thirty minutes prior to serving, skim off any excess fat that has risen to the top, fish out the bay leaves and remove the roast. Shred the roast using two large forks, returning the meat back to the sauce.
  3. Stir in the butter and kale. If your sauce requires additional thickening, you can combine 2 tablespoons cornstarch in 2 tablespoons of water, whisking out any lumps, and then stir into sauce.
  4. Prepare your desired pasta and serve over top.
