Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 boneless pork roast (about 3 lbs)
  • ½ tsp minced garlic
  • salt and pepper (to taste)
  • 1 ⅓ cups brown sugar (divided)
  • 1 Tbsp Dijon or spicy mustard
  • 1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar or rice vinegar
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • ¼ tsp cinnamon

Instruction

  • Trim any excess fat from pork roast. Prick roast all over with a fork. Rub garlic on roast and rub in the salt and pepper as well. Let sit.
  • In a small bowl, combine 1 cup brown sugar, mustard and vinegar. Rub all over the roast.
  • Place the roast in a crockpot with the chicken broth and cook on low for 8-9 hours. Pour off excess juice and set aside to make gravy if desired.
  • Combine 1/3 cup brown sugar with cinnamon. Spread mixture over top of roast and cook for 1 more hour before serving.
  • To make gravy: Prior to serving, ladle out about 1/4 cup of the juice in the crock pot and strain into a measuring cup. Whisk in 2 tsp cornstarch. Add in enough juice to make 1 cup. Microwave on high for 30 seconds and whisk again. Drizzle sauce over meat prior to serving.
