I don't know about you, but my big dinners always revolve around two things: family and pork. Like this Slow Cooker Pork Roast Dinner! Whether it's a ham or a pork roast, Smithfield All Natural Pork always makes it to my family table.
Smithfield pork is the only brand I've found that is both flavorful and juicy in all recipes. It's always the hit of my family gatherings, whether it's an intimate affair or the entire extended family!

Smithfield Pork - A Family Hit
Here's the thing about Smithfield All-Natural Pork. It's yummy. That's really the litmus test for anything that goes on my family dinner table. Is it delicious? In addition to being yummy, it's all-natural. I seriously can't stress that enough!
That is a big plus for me. I'm not a big fan of highly processed foods, steroids, hormones, or artificial ingredients. Luckily for me, Smithfield isn't a fan either. In fact, all of their pork is free from any of those things.
Another thing that makes me feel so good about adding Smithfield to my table is that all of their animals are raised in the USA, and they meet the USDA Process Verified standard. That means that Smithfield is healthy for me and for the economy.
They partner with and support regional farm families across the country and support both national and local causes. When I buy Smithfield All-Natural Pork at Walmart, I get a delicious centerpiece for my family feast, people around the country can provide for their families, and it's completely free of any added garbage. It's a win/win/win!
My Smithfield Family Feast
This year, I'll be doing a traditional pork roast when my family gathers to begin planning all of our holiday plans. It has everything - delicious Smithfield All-Natural Pork, carrots, potatoes, onion, and garlic. It's a crock pot wonder that is SO easy to prepare but makes my guests feel incredibly special because the flavor? It tastes like it took all day long to prepare and cook!
Just look at it. It's got that wonderful netted look that I associate with those big family feasts, and it's surrounded by delicious root vegetables. It really is the quintessential Sunday family meal.
I can just imagine all the family sitting around the table, piling on the Smithfield pork roast, sides, and desserts, laughing and chatting the entire time. Ahh. I can't wait!
