Of course it was the name which attracted me to this recipe. That, plus the fact that I had a nice pork butt in the refrigerator. I want to tell you this recipe turned out divinely. I had it for a dinner with mashed potatoes (could also use noodles) to sop up the gravy. I also shredded some of the pork for a lovely warm pork sandwich. Besides pork butt you can use pork shoulder in this recipe. Do not use pork loin however; it is too lean and the flavor is just not the same.
Ingredients:
1 pork roast, 3-4 pounds
1 teaspoon salt
fresh black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
2 large onions, quartered
3 (1 ounce) envelopes pork gravy mix
2 1/4 cups water
Directions:
1. Rinse the roast and pat dry with paper towels. Combine salt, pepper, and garlic powder and rub onto the roast. Place roast in a 3-1/2 to 4-quart crockpot.
2. Add the quartered onions over the top of the roast.
3. Prepare the pork gravy, using the 2-1/4 cups water, according to package directions. Pour the gravy over the roast and onions.
4. Cover and cook on LO heat for 8-10 hours. Taste for seasoning and adjust for taste if necessary.
