Easy Pork Roast

Step 1

Put the fresh or frozen pork roast in the crock pot.

Step 2

Sprinkle with desired amount of salt and pepper. Try to get some on the sides, then liberally sprinkle with poultry seasoning.

Step 3

If not using frozen roast, add 1/4 to 1/2 cup of water to the bottom of the crock pot.

Step 4

Cover and cook on high for 4-5 hours or low for 8-9 hours. If frozen, add 1 hour to cooking time.

Step 5

Melt 3 tablespoons of butter in a skillet or saucepan, then whisk in 3 tablespoons of flour. Let the roux cook over medium heat until it's golden and all of the flour is completely absorbed.

Step 6

Add 2 cups of liquid to the butter/flour roux. I use whatever juices are in the slow cooker and add chicken broth until it equals 2 cups. Bring the mixture to a simmer for about 5-7 minutes or until thickened.

Step 7

Season the gravy with salt and pepper to your liking and serve with the pork roast.
