The herbs are what really make this slow-cooker roast. Thyme, sage, and rosemary infuse the pork with a delightfully aromatic note, and flavor the apples as a little bonus.

Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.
It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

Very different way of cooking a pork roast. Liked the flavor, though I probably overcooked it as I set my crock pot to high (no medium setting) for almost 5 hours and the roast was 2 lbs only. Also, what can you do with the pork broth you get at the end? How do you make a gravy with it?

I doubled the herbs and added the second batch of them in during the last 30 minutes of cooking for extra flavor. I also used seasoned salt instead of regular. The roast was done perfectly.

I made this for Christmas dinner and it turned out really well. I added 1/2 tablespoon of vegetable paste and a chicken stock cube (although I'm not even sure it needed this extra cube afterall) I also added 2 apples instead of one. My In-laws really liked it as did the hubby, everyone went back for seconds! I made some roasted Brussell sprouts and roast potatoes to go with it and I made some really tasty gravy out of the juices. The house smelled delicious all day!

I agree that it was rather bland, so I doctored it up with a couple of tablespoons of "Better Than Bouillon" (chicken base), extra herbs, an extra apple, and some minced garlic (dried). That helped considerably. I added some peeled, quartered potatoes as well.
recipe was very bland, wont repeat it

I'm not a big pork fan, but this was really tasty! And it made my house smell sooo good.
