My family cannot stop raving about this meal! All day the aroma was driving them insane! I cooked on high for 4 hrs, my pork was fork-tender. Potatos and onions were also very flavorful. Cannot imagine how someone could not think this was tasty? It must've been the cut of meat. The only thing I will do different next time, is adding less water. After reading the other reviews, I will probably omit it all together. The sauce would be alot thicker this way. But otherwise- a simple tasty dish we will make again and again! Can't wait to try the pull pork sammies! But I'll to make it again, there were NO leftovers!

This cooked nicely, the pork practically shredded itself when I took it out of the crockpot. But, the flavor was lacking. just kind of "blah". If I make it again, I will just do the pork loin with everything except the potatos. then shred it up and add BBQ sauce for sandwich's.

There is WAY too much liquid in this recipe. Adding 1 C. of water turned the potato/onion mixture into soup. The flavors of all the sauce elements were so watery that they never stuck to the meat and the meat just had a garlic flavor with salt and pepper. Too mushy for me. The recipe might have worked if the meat had had the sauce covered by it. It was not sweet and sour asian tasting either. Just more like barbeque. Needs fixing!
