Pork Roast


This recipe wasn't necessarily bad, but it wasn't as good as I was hoping for.  It was supposedly a "light" recipe.  The apple juice really saturated the potatoes, making them sweeter than we liked.   I would have been better off with chicken stock.   Also, the recipe lacked seasoning.  I added salt and pepper to our leftovers which helped it out.

I can't find the recipe I used online, but it was like this:

Chop up some potatoes, carrots, celery, and onions.  Throw them in the slow cooker.  Pour 1/2 cup apple juice concentrate over everything along with salt, pepper, and cinnamon.

Rub salt, pepper, and ground cinnamon all over the pork butt.  In a large skillet with a little olive oil, get a quick sear on all sides.  Place it on top of the veggies in the slow cooker.  Cook on low heat for 8-10 hours.
