The Garlicky Herbed Pork Roast Recipe is one I know I can count on when I want a dinner that’s really special.
Serves 8 to 10.
Ingredients:
4 to 5-lb. pork roast
4 cloves garlic, slivered
1 t. dried thyme
1/2 t. dried sage
1/2 t. ground cloves
1 t. salt
1 t. lemon zest
2 T. cold water
2 T. cornstarch
Method:
Cut 16 small pockets into roast with a knife tip; insert garlic slivers.
Combine seasonings and zest; rub over roast. Place roast in a slow cooker. Cover and cook on low setting for 7 to 9 hours, or on high setting for 4 to 5 hours.
Allow roast to stand 10 to 15 minutes before slicing. Remove and discard garlic pieces. Strain juices into a saucepan over medium heat; bring to a boil.
Mix together water and cornstarch until dissolved; gradually add to saucepan. Cook until thickened, about 5 minutes. Serve gravy over sliced pork.
