I have been making this recipe on a regular basis. My husband and I love it. I serve it to company and have been asked for the recipe multiple times. I have also tried this recipe with chicken insted of the pork roast, which I like just as well.

This is the best roast I have EVER made hands down! The meat was so tender and the flavor of the sauce that it produced was delicious!

I didn't have any apple juice on hand so I used about a cup of natural apple sauce instead. Like a previous reviewer, I added some garlic and ginger and a handfull of chopped green onion to the sauce mixture before letting it simmer in the crock pot 4 hours.

When we arrived home from church the smell of the roast filled the kitchen and we all dove in right away!

I will keep this recipe and use it as my signature roast recipe- it was that good! ☺

Thank you!

This recipe is so easy and excellent for a quick meal, it's always surprising. I've made it at home and at my parents and everyone loves it!

Delicious-I added a tablespoon of rice wine vinegar, some fresh minced garlic and ginger. A keeper and I am not even a big fan of pork shoulder(I prefer the loin) but this was great! My son and hubby enjoyed it also.

I made this recipe last Sunday & it is fabulous. I did add one package of marinade spices that I added to the brown sugar before I rubbed it into the roast...wonderful flavor & so easy. Thanks so much for sharing...I will be making this one again and again!
