RECIPE EXCHANGE - CIDER PORK ROAST

My mother-in-law was the first to serve this recipe to me and let me tell you I was very skeptical. I love trying new recipes, but this one seemed a little weird. Let me tell you how WRONG I was. I crave this recipe all the time and the gravy served over mashed potatoes is to die for. Don't wait TOO long to try this recipe out.

Cider Pork Roast
1.5-2 pound Boneless Pork Loin
2 T Oil
1.5 cups Apple Cider (I use apple juice most of the time)
3 Beef Bouillon Cubes
1 tsp Mustard
1/4 tsp Black Pepper

Directions
Heat oil in skillet and brown pork loin on all sides. Combine all other ingredients together in a separate bowl. Remove pork from skillet and place in a crock pot. Pour apple cider mixture over pork. Cook on low for 2-3 hours or until pork is shreddable.

Drain cider mixture into a small sauce pan and bring to a low boil. Add corn starch to thicken. Serve with mashed potatoes.

I was just looking for a good recipe like this to use shredded in pitas. Would this work? Also, I used to look at your sister's site before she closed down, that's how I found yours. Do you know if the Smith's caselot sale runs for two weeks and can you buy stuff individually?

Heather -

I I use the leftovers to make panninis so I am sure it would work good with pitas as well.

As for as the Smith's case lot sale, I am not sure the length of the sale. I know that my Smith allows you to buy the case lot items individually. I think it depends on the manager. Call and ask your store to see what their policy is and how long the sale runs.
