Pork Roast, Gravy & Mashed Taters image

A pork roast and a few seasonings, slow cooked and then served over mashed potatoes and gravy made from the drippings. What's not to like! Comfort food at best!! I didn't have dry onion soup mix so I made my own. Most cooks will have the needed ingredients in their pantry....

Followed the recipe exactly and the results were amazing! The pork was fall-off-the-bone tender and the gravy was rich and flavorful. Served it with mashed potatoes and roasted vegetables, and it was a feast fit for a king.

The pork roast was a bit dry, but the gravy was good.

This pork roast recipe was a hit with my family! The meat was tender and juicy, and the gravy was flavorful and delicious. I served it with mashed potatoes and green beans, and it was a perfect meal. I will definitely be making this again.
