Ingredients

1 boneless pork shoulder butt roast (3 to 4 pounds)
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, drained
1 medium onion, chopped
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) beef broth

6 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons molasses
1 teaspoon dried thyme
2 tablespoons cornstarch
