So here's what I did. I'm putting pics of the progress (fantastic idea...thank you Pioneer Woman!).
So I started with 2 24oz pork roasts, a can of chicken broth, a can of pineapple rings & 3 mangos. The pic only shows one roast...but that's because I had already plopped the other in the crock pot before I remembered to take a pic. :)
I put them both in the crock pot.
Then I peeled and chunked the mangos. If you don't have a serrated peeler...buy one. They are fabulous!
Okie dokie, Then I poured about a cup of chicken broth over the roasts. Dropped the mangos in there & then placed the pineapple rings over the roast. I poured all the pineapple juice in there as well. I wanted to add a little kick to it so I sprinkled some red pepper flakes on top as well.
I put that baby on HIGH for 3hrs and then on LOW for 2. Normally I'd do about 6 to 8 hrs on low, but I didn't get started on this until noon.
When there was about an hour left I decided to add some Pampered Chef Sweet & Smokey BBQ Rub to it. Just for some more color.
Meanwhile I whipped up some mashed taters. I love mashed potatoes. A LOT.
DINNER TIME!!
I thought it had GREAT flavor. The pineapple added just the right amount of sweetness while the mango gave it a fruity, peppery flavor. The meat fell apart with no effort...really, really yummy. I'll be making this one again for sure!
Austin liked it. If I can get a picky 3 year old to eat it then I've done my job.

This was really good! My final result was not nearly as pretty as yours, but still yummy!
