How to make a pork knuckle in a slow cooker? Very simple! First, prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list. It is advisable to cook the knuckle in advance - at least a day before the celebration. It will take about 12 hours to marinate and another 12 hours to languish in a slow cooker.

Wash the pork knuckle, dry it. If there is a skin on the knuckle - clean it with a knife. My knuckle was already sold without skin.

Peel the garlic from the husks. Cut each clove lengthwise into 2 parts. If desired, you can take more garlic or replace fresh garlic with 2 tbsp. l. dry.

In a bowl, combine the soy sauce and mustard. Stir.

In a knuckle on all sides with a knife, make deep punctures. Pepper the leg with garlic.

Grate the knuckle on all sides with salt, pepper, sprinkle with dried herbs. Keep in mind that in addition to salt, soy sauce is used (albeit in small quantities) so as not to salt the meat.

Coat the pork with soy mustard sauce.

Transfer the knuckle to a double-folded large piece of foil and wrap tightly, lifting the edges of the foil up to prevent the marinade from leaking out. Put the knuckle to marinate in the fridge for 10-12 hours.

Transfer the foil-wrapped meat to the bowl of the slow cooker and close the lid.

Set the program "Multipovar" and the temperature of 80 ° С. Cooking time - 12-13 hours.

Remove the finished knuckle from the bowl. It turns out to be very soft and juicy. The meat easily moves away from the bone. Expand the foil. Optionally, you can additionally put the meat in the oven warmed to 200 ° C for 15-20 minutes to get a light ruddy crust.

Transfer the pork knuckle to a dish and serve with any side dish. Enjoy your meal!
