Steps:
- Toss together the onion powder, parsley, 1 tablespoon garlic powder, seasoned salt, 1 1/2 tablespoons black pepper, marjoram, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a large, resealable plastic bag. Add the cubed pork, toss until well coated, then seal, and refrigerate overnight.
- Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Line a 9x9 inch baking dish with half of the spinach leaves.
- Pack the marinated pork into the baking dish, and cover with the remaining spinach leaves. Cover the pan with aluminum foil, and bake in the preheated oven for 3 hours, or until the pork is tender.
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Whisk in the flour, and cook for 15 minutes, stirring frequently until the flour has toasted. Scrape into a heatproof dish, and set aside. Melt the butter in the pot, and stir in the onions and celery. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 10 minutes. Add the mushrooms, and cook until tender; stir the flour mixture back into the pot to coat the vegetables.
- Pour in the beef broth, stewed tomatoes, cooked pork and spinach, bay leaves, red pepper flakes, and 1 teaspoon garlic powder. Simmer 1 1/2 hours.
- Stir in the butter beans, yellow squash, and zucchini. Simmer 30 minutes until the vegetables are tender. Season to taste with salt and pepper before serving.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of pork: Pork shoulder or pork butt are ideal for this recipe as they are tough cuts that become tender when cooked slowly.
- Brown the pork before cooking: Browning the pork adds flavor and helps to create a rich sauce.
- Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for carrots, celery, and onions, but you can also add other vegetables such as potatoes, turnips, or parsnips.
- Season the stew well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder to season the stew.
- Cook the stew on low heat: Cooking the stew on low heat allows the flavors to develop and the pork to become tender.
- Serve the stew with crusty bread or mashed potatoes: This will help to soak up the delicious sauce.
Conclusion:
This crock pot pork stew is a hearty and flavorful dish that is perfect for a fall meal. The pork is tender and juicy, and the vegetables are cooked to perfection. The sauce is rich and savory, and the whole dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
