Autumn Harvest's Best Pork Roast image

Pork, when cooked to perfection, is my favorite meat. I started serving this dish last fall when apples were being harvested and it was a huge hit. I like granny smith but many others will do just fine. Some people like to eat the apples with the pork. I prefer them just to flavor the meat and sauce.

Categories     Pork

Time 8h10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 -3 lbs pork loin
coarse black pepper, freshly ground
salt
6 apples, quartered
1/4 cup apple juice
1/2 cup white wine
3/4 cup peach jam
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground ginger

Steps:

  • Rub pork loin with pepper and salt to taste.
  • Brown sides in frying pan.
  • Line apples on the bottom of a crockpot.
  • Lay pork loin on top of apples.
  • Whisk the remaining ingredients together and pour over pork loin and apples.
  • Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours.
  • *Note:I use Livingston's Chablis Blanc which is about$4.00 a bottle in the grocery store. However, Beringer's Chenin Blanc or a nice German white wine (like Reisling) would be lovely as well.
  • **Note:I use my mom's homemade peach jam. If you use plain peach jam be sure to add 1/2 tsp cinnamon and a pinch of ground clove for a wonderful flavor.
