I think it needed a little longer to marinate. I just didn't seem to "soak up" the flavors. It still turned out tender and delicious, though.

Super easy and delicious. I loved the sweet potatoes with the pork. I went ahead and used a "roast rub" on my pork and threw in a few sprigs of rosemary. It came out tender and so yummy.

Used another reviewer's suggestion and rubbed with Old Bay seasoning. It still was a bit plain for me, but I did like it. I used a bone in pork roast and had to massacre the roast, bone and all, to make it fit. I didn't use sweet potatoes--just used a regular baking potato. Bf decided we are making bbq'd pork out of the leftovers, and he liked it as is just fine.

Very good. I followed some others advice and seasoned it then browned in oil. Covered with chicken broth and added some veggies. All i can say is there were no leftovers cause my hubby loved it so much.

Awesome dinner-made it with red potatoes instead of sweet and twice the garlic(cant get enough). Great recipe for anyone with busy schedule like myself. Will def make again.

This recipe was really good. I'm not a sweet potato fan, so I just used regular potatoes. Beyond that, this seems like a recipe you can really adjust to make something a little different every time you make it.

I have made this several times now, and it always comes out great. The only thing I change is that I usually make it with regular potatoes instead of sweet potatoes because I don't think the sweet potatoes add anything. The garlic and onion pretty much overpower them. And I try to make it with the biggest pork roast my crock pot can handle because we shred the leftovers and make BBQ sandwiches the next night. You've gotta love such a simple, easy, delicious recipe.

Finally! I have found a recipe for pork roast that didn't call for a tomato product! Loved it!

I love anything made in the crockpot, and you can't beat how easy this recipe is. That being said, I just wasn't wowed by flavor. I even tried adding the garlic salt, basil, and bay leaves, and carrots, suggested by other reviewers, but still didn't feel it was a fantastic recipe. Just okay.

An easy tasteful Sunday dinner. The pork would have been a little bland had I not took the advice of some other reviewers and seasoned it. I used garlic powder, dry basil and a couple of bay leaves. Otherwise, followed the recipe according to directions. Meat was tender and moist and the veggies done just right. I dropped a few baby carrots in with mine. Made cooking a meal a snap. I will probably use this recipe again and try some different seasonings until I get it just right. I strained the "juice" left at the bottom of the crock and refrigerated it overnight to skim the fat off in the morning. Used it as a base for gravy for hot pork sandwiches, as hubby doesn't care for gravy on potatoes. Worked fine.

This was not BAD, but it wasn't anything to write home about. Definately lacks flavor.

flavor of the meat was good. I used more garlic than recommended. I'd agree with the other reviewer that you do not need all the recommended chicken broth. I don't think the sweet potatoes complemented the pork flavor very well. I would have used just regular white potatoes.

Amazing! I followed the recipe almost exactly. The only change I made was adding more of my favorite veggies like carrots, small red potatoes, and mushrooms. Everything turned out incredibly moist and tender! It was perfect, and I'll definitely make this again and again!

This was a pretty good base recipe. I wish I would have read the reviews before I made it and seasoned it a little more like everyone suggested. However, I think because it was so mildly flavored my kids loved it; telling me it was the best "chicky" ever!:)

MMMMM! That's all my kids said when they were eating this. The pork turned out so good. I followed some of the suggestions and seasoned the pork with some of my favorite mixed seasoning and seared it before putting it in the slow cooker. I think the pork deserved 5 star but the sweet potatoes only 4 star. Next time I will try something different with the sweet potatoes, maybe wraping them in foil to cook along side the pork or use red potaoes instead.

The pork was great (used a tenderloin) but you have to really like sweet potatoes because no flavor other than that - I even used extra garlic & garlic chicken consume.
