Make it happen

  1. 01

    Use fully thawed pork and trim off thick rind. Brown the pork in the oil in a hot pan for 5 minutes, if time allows.

  2. 02

    Place the onion and garlic in the slow cooker, sit the pork over them and pour in the stock.

  3. 03

    Add thyme and mustard to the stock; reserve pear wedges.

  4. 04

    Cover and cook on LOW for 8 hours or HIGH for 5 hours, until the pork is tender and thoroughly cooked.

  5. 05

    Add pears for the final 90 minutes to soften without disappearing.

  6. 06

    Discard excess surface fat, season to taste and serve piping hot.
