Lamb Shank Recipe Slow Cooker Without Wine

Rita Maas

When they aren't prepared correctly, thick cuts of pork like the loin and shoulder can be exactly what you don't want in a meat: chewy and fatty. But when trimmed (a good butcher can help make this step easier for you), drenched in a flavorful sauce and left to simmer away for hours in a slow cooker, well, it's a whole different protein you've got on your plate. Not only does slow-cooking provide a meal of fork-tender meat, but it also leaves you with free time and a cool kitchen—both essential in summer. So next time you're short on time and wondering what to put on the table, opt for one of these succulent and savory pork dishes.
