I took a couple of liberties with this recipe: I used a pork shoulder roast, and did it in the crockpot. Otherwise, I used the ingredients and method listed. Browned the roast and mixed the gravy ingredients and put it all in the crockpot on low for 6 hours. Turned out great and flavors are wonderful. Also made the house smell nice! Looking forward to leftovers! Made for My 3 Chefs game. (and thank your mother for her recipe!) -
So good, great blend of spices. I used the crock pot for ease of prep, browning my chuck roast first and then just adding all to the pot and cooked on low for 8 hours. Adding a corn starch slurry at the end to thicken and served over hot buttered egg noodles and red cabbage with apples on the side. Such a wonderful, warm, comforting fall dinner

As I am in South Florida, I have many edible fruits and perennial veggies in my yard. So, I like to cook with them.
