SLOW COOKER PORK ROAST
I tried this cut of meat when it was on sale, and for lack of any other ideas I took suggestions from the back of the label, with a few tweaks (like making gravy). This is a very popular dish at our house, and it could not be easier! Instead of rubbing the roast with the onion soup mix and then adding the cranberry sauce, you can also just mix the onion soup mix with the cranberry sauce and pour the whole mixture over the roast.

SLOW COOKER SAVORY CRANBERRY PORK BUTT ROAST
I found a pork loin recipe in an email from All Recipes and that was my inspiration for this. I really wanted a Crock Pot recipe using the Pork Butt roast which is a budget stretcher compared to loins. This version turned out moist and flavorful. The original version used apple jelly instead of the marmalade. Use the one you like best.

FRESH CRANBERRY SLOW COOKER PORK ROAST
I've seen many recipes using canned cranberry sauce, but I much prefer fresh ingredients. I like to leave the fat on the roast while cooking, but then reduce the fat content of the gravy by chilling the cooked roast overnight. Once chilled, I remove the congealed fat that has all floated to the top before straining the juices to make my gravy. My husband says this is the best pork roast ever! Very tender and tasty with a slightly sweet sauce.
