This Crock Pot Thai Pork with Peanut Sauce is packed with flavor and so easy to make. Just start the slow cooker in the morning and come home to a delicious dinner!
Well, it’s been a crazy two weeks, to say the least. Since I haven’t quiiiiite finished my wedding recap yet, I figured I’d give you all a delicious recipe to tide you over!
I made this pork before wedding madness even set in, but I’ve been thinking about it ever since. Nick proclaimed it one of the best things I’ve ever made, and I definitely agree it’s one of my favorites. But if you ask me, you can’t really go wrong with peanut butter or Thai.

Mmmmmm hmmmmm genius!
I saw this at the hop and couldn’t help but click on it. Not only does it look delish, but as the weather gets cooler I’m looking for things to make in the crockpot. There’s just something so comforting about smelling a hot dinner cooking all afternoon on a cold day. Can’t wait to try this one.
This looks great. I am on such a peanut sauce kick and can’t seem to get enough recipes like this. I am definitely trying this one.
