Step 1
Mix pork rub seasoning and Chinese five-spice powder together in a small bowl. Rub all over pork roast.
Step 2
Place sweet potatoes into the bottom of a slow cooker; add brown sugar and butter. Place roast on top and season with salt and pepper.
Step 3
Cook on Low until roast is fork-tender, 6 to 7 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
