Can Coconut-Red Curry Shredded Pork Be Made in a Slow Cooker

Question

Hello! I am planning to make this recipe this weekend, I'd like to make it in my crock pot, can you advise me on how long I should cook it and at high or low? Thank you!

Hi Angie -
We didn’t test this  recipe in a slow cooker so we can’t give specific advice to ensure the same results as the original recipe.
That being said, you might want to take a look at the “slow” instructions for the Mojo Shredded Pork from our Fast & Slow cookbook for recommendations on timing for slow cooking. The liquid in the pot (both from the coconut milk and the juices from the meat) won't evaporate in the slow cooker so you may need to defat and transfer that liquid to a saucepan on the stovetop to reduce it down when the meat finishes cooking.
Hope that helps!
