‘Amish Table King’ is what my family calls this dish—it’s a feast-worthy classic that brings everyone back for seconds!

This slow cooker Amish pork roast is one of those comforting dishes that feels like a warm hug after a long day. Growing up in the Midwest, I was always surrounded by hearty, home-cooked meals, and this recipe is a nod to those simpler times. The Amish are known for their simple, yet flavorful cooking, and this pork roast is no exception. It’s perfect for those busy weekdays when you want a delicious meal waiting for you at home without much fuss. Plus, the slow cooker does all the heavy lifting!

This pork roast pairs beautifully with creamy mashed potatoes or buttered egg noodles. You could also serve it alongside some roasted root vegetables or a fresh green salad to balance out the richness of the meat. Don’t forget a slice of crusty bread to soak up all the delicious juices!
