  • 1-1/2 cups sugar
  • 1/4 cup vinegar
  • 12 whole cloves
  • 1 cinnamon stick (3 inches)
  • 1/3 cup cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 3 to 4 drops red food coloring, optional

Directions:

  1. Rub roast with salt, pepper and sage; place in an ungreased shallow baking pan. Bake, uncovered, at 325° for 1-1/2 to 2 hours or until a meat thermometer reads 160°-170°. Meanwhile, drain cherries, reserving liquid. Set cherries aside. Add water to cherry liquid to measure 3/4 cup. Pour 1/2 cup into a saucepan; add sugar, vinegar, cloves and cinnamon. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Remove and discard the spices. In a small bowl, combine cornstarch and remaining cherry liquid until smooth; add to saucepan. Bring to a boil; cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Stir in lemon juice, butter, cherries and food coloring if desired; heat through. Let roast stand for 10 minutes; slice and serve with the cherry sauce. Yield: 8-10 servings.
