Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound baby carrots (or whole carrots sliced)
1 (3 pound) pork roast
1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground mustard
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
2 Tablespoons olive oil
2 (14.5 ounce) cans chicken broth
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup cold water

Steps:

Spray the inside of your slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray.
Place carrots in the bottom of the slow cooker.
Cut the roast in half. Place flour, seasoned salt, onion powder, garlic powder, ground mustard, and oregano in a gallon-sized Ziploc bag. Add one half the roast to the bag, seal the bag, and shake until the roast is entirely coated. Repeat with other half of the roast.
Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add olive oil and brown roast on all sides (I did each side for about 2-3 minutes). Place both halves of the roast in the slow cooker.
Pour the chicken broth on top of the roast and cook on low for 6 hours (or until pork is tender).
Remove roast from slow cooker and using a slotted spoon, remove the carrots.
Measure out 3 cups of liquid from the slow cooker and pour into a medium saucepan, bring to a boil. In a small bowl, mix together cornstarch and water, then pour into saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook for 2-3 minutes or until gravy thickens up.
Serve with mashed potatoes and pour gravy on top.
