For an extra treat with this moist, tender pork, crisp canned french-fried onion pieces in a dry skillet, then sprinkle over the top just before serving. Round it out with mashed potatoes or fluffy noodles. —Judy Clark, Addison, Michigan

I used Badkitty's suggestions, plus I added dry onion soup mix. I did not have a can of chicken broth so I made a cup of chicken broth using Tone's Chicken Base. I did not need to thicken the gravy up with the cornstart as the gravy was just right. Also, I used a rib roast, not a pork roast. This undoubted was the BEST roast I have ever made. A real keeper for sure. Thank you for the suggestions Badkitty.

Bland and really greasy/fatty. What a waste...

Delicious! Moist tender pork with wonderful gravy that goes so well over mashed potatoes. It tastes like Thanksgiving with pork instead of turkey. I used a pork loin roast instead of the pork butt due to personal preferences. I left out the carrots and cooked them separately because I don't like them mushy. Only used a pinch of thyme because I find it an overwhelming spice, and added garlic powder , a bay leaf and more Worcestershire sauce than called for. I cut my roast in half and seasoned it with Emeril's Essence and pepper and browned it on all sides in a couple tablespoons of olive oil before putting it in the crock pot. I skipped the french fried onions, not needed. Everyone enjoyed it, even my 8 year old who doesn't like much meat...he was done in record time! Love that gravy and highly recommend making mashed potatoes with this. I will definitely make again. Thanks.
