-1 large onion, sliced
-2 1/2 pounds boneless pork loin roast
-1 cup hot water
-1/4 cup white sugar
-3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar (most REAL apple cider vinegars like BRAGGS or HEINZ are safe....but if they are apple cider FLAVORED vinegar they are NOT safe)
-2 tablespoons WHEAT FREE soy sauce (SAN-J WHEAT-FREE TAMARI, or LA CHOY Soy Sauce [although not truly soy sauce], and BRAGG'S LIQUID AMINO are gluten free)

DIRECTIONS

1. Arrange onion slices evenly over the bottom of the slow cooker, and then place the roast on top of the onion. In a bowl, mix together water, sugar, vinegar, soy sauce, ketchup, black pepper, salt, garlic powder, and hot sauce; pour over roast.
2. Cover, and cook on Low for 6 to 8 hours, or on High for 3 to 4 hours.

I like to serve this over white or brown rice and then add a side of steamed veggies. You can also serve this in a CORN tortilla with sour cream and any other of your favorite condiments.
