This was very good. I made this for supper last night. I served it with mixed veggies and rice. I only cooked it 5 hours on high and the flavors melded together wonderfully. When dh tried to cut it, it just fell apart. We didn't make the "gravy" we just used the juice and it was still delicious. DH says this is a keeper so we will definitely be making this again and again. Thanks for sharing.

I made this the other night, but only used a small can of crushed pineapple since that's what I had. I added it (with juice) at the beginning rather than later. The roast turned out great. I thickened it with a little cornstarch and water about an hour before we ate. The next night I heated up the leftovers with some BBQ sauce for sandwiches.

I have made this recipe in the past and my daughters loved it. My recipe calls for 8 ounces of crushed pineapple; otherwise, it is the same. I tried it with pork chops and it doesn't work; the flavors get weird if cooked too long. But if made as directed, it is fantastic.

Fantastic! Made this one for dinner tonight and it was fabulous! It only took 6 hours in the crock however (maybe because my roast was slightly smaller than 3 lbs). The meat just fell apart upon slicing! Once it was sliced, served over white rice and it was a huge hit. Thanks for a keeper! P.S. My pic was obviously taken before the roast was sliced :)
