    Beautiful recipe. I added a bit of whole grain mustard.

    Nice recipe.. Needs more maple syrup as the juices from the pork take over.

    I cooked this for Christmas last year. It was super easy and super yummy. It left me time to hang out with the guests and enjoy the day.

    Do you remove the pork rind before wrapping in bacon?

    1. Paulene @ Slow Cooker Central

      I would 🙂

    Tastes Great. We had friends over and they commented it was one of the best pork roasts they have had,

    Loved the flavour but my bacon wrapping skills need a little honing?. Will definitely do again & try another wrapping method (plus get my husband to help tie). My husband isn’t a big Pork fan but he loved this.

    Sounds very yummy does the maple syrup make it sweet .

    1. Paulene @ Slow Cooker Central

      It would only be a hint I’d say in final dish 🙂

  9. Can I ask how to cook a leg of lamb in the slow cooker

    This is a beautiful recipe, so full of flavour. We always make twice as much as we need, and then freeze in portions for a quick mid-week meal with some mash and salad or veggies. 10/10!
