Crock Pot Pork Roast image

This is my own recipe. I wanted a pork roast that would fall apart with an apricot flavor so I came up with this very simple recipe that you can put in the crock pot at noon and it'll be ready when you get home from work with just a little finish prep work. We eat this will rolls and a salad.

Categories     Pork

Time 5h5m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (3 lb) pork roast, I prefer neck roast or butt
6 medium carrots (peeled and cut into thick chunk slices)
3 cups water (1 cup per lb of meat)
3 italian bouillon cubes (chicken can be substituted, need 1 cube per cup of water, chicken broth can also be substituted)
1 (12 ounce) jar apricot jam (or homemade freezer jam works well too)

Steps:

  • Microwave water and bouillon cubes together until cubes have dissolved. Turn Crock pot onto high. Place pork roast into bottom of crock pot and add bouillon water over top.
  • Place peeled and cut carrots into the bouillon in the crock pot, cover and cook for 4 to 5 hours. 1/2 hour to 1 hour before you are ready to eat add the jar of apricot jelly over the pork roast, cover and continue to cook.
  • Serve with rolls and a salad.
  • The apricot flavoring makes the carrots more like a dessert than a vegetable.
