A roast by any other name.

Today's crock was card number 12. (Thanks Shana!)

"Slow-Cooked Pork Loin" (6 quart pot)

~1 pork loin roast (The card says 3 1/2-4 lbs. The ONLY one I could find was 1.5. I kept the amounts on everything else the same.)
~1 T canola oil
~1 onion, chopped
~1 celery rib, cut into 1-inch pieces
~1 envelope brown gravy mix
~1 c water
~1 c unsweetened apple sauce
~1/2 c unsweetened apple juice
~2 t Worcestershire sauce
~1/2 t seasoned salt
~1/2 t pepper

Cut roast in half.
In a large skillet, brown roast on oil on all sides.
Transfer to crock pot.
In the same skillet, sauté onion and celery until tender; add to crock pot.
In a small bowl, combine gravy mix and water.
Stir in remaining ingredients; pour over pork.
Cover and cook on low for 6 hours.
Skim fat from cooking juices.
Thicken if desired. (I added some tapioca.)

12 servings (if you use a 4 lb roast. Our tiny roast was about 3.)

This was a darn good pot roast. I served it with sautéed spinach and garlicky smashed potatoes and it all went together very nicely. The only thing it loses points for is its name. I know I'm absolutely terrible at naming things, but I feel like so far, the recipes in this stack of cards are SEVERELY lacking in the naming department.

Maybe I'm just weird.

That could be it.
