I'm so happy you made this thread. I've only recently gotten into the slow cooker thing. I have been playing around with it. From what I gather, pork is difficult to do with a slow cooker without drying it out.

I've got the most amazing, delicious and easy pot roast recipe if you are interested though. It's great. It takes 5 minutes and everyone thinks you're a great cook.

I did also buy some slow cooker cookbooks. The one thing I've learned from them all is to make good meals, you don't just toss ingredients into the slowcooker and expect magic. You've got to do some prep work which takes a bit of time, but if you do it, you get some wonderful results. For instance, most of them suggest you sear or brown your meat before putting it in the slow cooker to get more flavor.
