We love this easy slow-cooker recipe on Sunday afternoons. It's equally comforting and light for lunch or dinner. We serve ours with sweet potato oven fries and roasted green beans. —Arlene Rakoczy, Gilbert, Arizona

Ingredients

1 boneless pork shoulder butt roast (3 to 4 pounds)
1 teaspoon rubbed sage
1 teaspoon salt, divided
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 can (20 ounces) unsweetened crushed pineapple, undrained
2 tablespoons minced fresh gingerroot
18 Boston or Bibb lettuce leaves
Thinly sliced green onions, optional

Directions

Rub roast with sage, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper. Place in a 4- or 5-qt. slow cooker. Top with pineapple and ginger. Cook, covered, on low until meat is tender, 6-8 hours.
Remove roast; shred with 2 forks. Strain cooking juices. Reserve pineapple and 1 cup juices; discard remaining juices. Skim fat from reserved juices. Return pork and cooking juices to slow cooker; stir in remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Heat through. Serve in lettuce leaves with reserved pineapple and, if desired, green onions.

Test Kitchen tips

Sage and ginger flavor this mildly sweet pork dish. If you'd like yours sweeter, add a drizzle of honey to the pork mixture.
