Cranberry Pork Roast (Slow Cooker)
1 boneless rolled pork loin roast (2-1/2-3 lbs)
1 can (16 oz) jellied cranberry sauce
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup cranberry juice
1 tsp dry mustard
1/4 tsp ground cloves
2 tsp cornstarch
2 tsp cold water
Salt to taste
Place pork roast in a slow cooker. In a medium bowl, mash cranberry sauce; stir in sugar, cranberry juice, mustard and cloves. Pour over roast. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or until meat is tender. Remove roast and keep warm. Skim fat from juices; measure 2 cups, adding water if necessary, and pour into a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Combine the cornstarch and cold water to make a paste; stir into gravy. Cook and stir until thickened. Season with salt. Serve with sliced pork. (Gravy is delicious over mashed potatoes.)
Yield: 4-6 servings
