"THE FINE FLAVOR of this pork roast is further enhanced when spicy-sweet apples are spooned over slices of the meat. This wonderful recipe made pork my favorite of all meats."

If Cooking for Two: Both the pork roast and apples freeze well (separately). Store individual portions in airtight containers.
