Your family is going to love this crock pot stew made with pork & vegetables in a Hungarian sweet paprika and red wine gravy.

You all know my daughter is away at college and has been cooking for herself over the last few years. This year, I met a few of her friends and one of them had told me that she just got a crock pot and was looking for some new recipes to try.

I have a few recipes on my blog, but I generally only like chili and stews when using my slow cooker. I wanted to come up with a new, simple recipe that she could follow and made this Crock Pot Hungarian Pork Stew.

Crock Pot Hungarian Pork Stew

One of the main ingredients that gave this stew such a robust color comes from paprika; which is a spice made from the chili pepper family. It's available in smoked, sweet and hot and is often associated with Hungarian cuisine. I don't like my food smokey or hot, so I went with the traditional sweet paprika.

How do you make Hungarian Stew in the crock pot?

Start  by getting all of your ingredients together. You will need boneless, center cut pork loin, onions, garlic, celery, carrots, sweet potatoes, flour, extra virgin olive oil, Hungarian sweet paprika, beef stock and red wine.

Cut the pork loin into 2" cubes; then dredge them in all purpose flour. This will help thicken the gravy while cooking in the crock pot. Heat the oil in a large sauté pan over medium high heat and brown the pork on all sides.

Add the pork to your crock pot, along with the all of the remaining ingredients except for the sweet potatoes and mix well. Cook in your crock pot on low for 6-8 hours or high 4-6 hours; adding the sweet potatoes in 1 hour before you're ready to serve.

Stew is one of those comfort foods that my family craves when the weather starts getting cooler. Because I added sweet potatoes to this version, I served ours with a tossed salad. But for those of you that love a good egg noodle under your stew, go ahead.

Either way your family is going to love this recipe. Since this recipe serves 6 people and I'm still keeping track of all of the nutritional information from the foods I'm eating, this stew is also only 358 calories per serving.

My family loved this Hungarian Pork Stew and you could also try using beef cubes or chicken in place of the pork to switch it up a bit. ~Enjoy!

    Had a pork loin and a half left over from Tuesday's dinner, a crockpot and all the other ingredients needed - including an opened bottle of red wine, and egg noodles left over from last night (I always make too many). I'd never considered using beef stock with pork as we always have chicken stock but it just so happens that we had some beef stock in the fridge too. I love Paprika so I'll be excited to come home to this concoction tonight. Thanks for sharing your ideas!

    I may try it again but with more Paprika. It seemed a little bland for our taste, but still a good and hearty stew that was super easy. Thanks again for sharing.

    This recipe was amazing! Simple, easy and delicious. I used my crock pot dutch oven. I browned the meat and then throw in the rest in the same pan. Occasionally checked on it over a 4 hour period and viola, fabulous Hungarian Pork Stew! I served it with mash potatoes. Thanks for making cooking fun and dinner a success.

    I made a double recipe with lots of Paprika. Probably 3 Tbsp. I am gluten intolerant so just browned the meat as is. Used both sweet and Yukon gold spuds. YUM. Thank you for this recipe. PS as with most stews even better the day after.

    Can this be made in a Dutch oven on the stove top?

      Absolutely! Depending on how thick your pieces are, you can simmer it on low for 1-2 hours.
