Sweet and Spicy Jalapeno Plum Sauce over Pork Sirloin
The perfect balance between sweet and spicy is this Sweet and Spicy Jalapeno Plum Sauce over Pork Sirloin. A personal favorite of mine for special occasions and weekends!
In a small saucepan over medium heat, add 1/2 cup water, apple cider vinegar, California dried plums, stevia, ginger, red pepper flakes and 2 cloves of chopped garlic.
Heat until liquid begins to thicken slightly, 8-12 minutes.
Using a whisk, quickly force the plums to begin to break apart once they become moist and tender in the liquid.
Remove mixture from heat.
In a slow cooker add the remaining water, placing the red onions, jalapenos and chopped garlic on the bottom.
Place pork shoulder in the slow cooker.
Cover with the sauce and place on low heat.
Cook for 4-6 hours, or until internal temperature reaches 165*F.
Remove from slow cooker, shred or keep in larger portions and serve with the cooked jalapenos and onions on top!
