For an even richer flavor, use unfiltered apple cider.
Browning the pork roast before slow cooking is crucial for developing depth of flavor.
If you prefer a thicker gravy, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water to make a slurry. Stir the slurry into the cooking juices during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
Serve this delightful pork roast with creamy mashed potatoes or polenta to soak up all the delicious gravy.
