I had a pork roast handy. Put this together using my own twists. For instance, the original recipe called for apple juice or cider. I forgot to add carrots, so I made Brown Sugar Molasses Carrots.

Steps

1

Pour nectar and water into crock pot. Layer fruit and veggies in the pot.
2

Brown roast on all sides in medium high heat skillet. I used cast iron.
3

Place the pork on top of veggies/fruit. Rub mustard and sage on all sides of pork. Cover crock and cook on LOW. Tip: I started on HIGH first hour, then to LOW the rest of time. Check at 7 hours using quick read meat thermometer. 165°F is done.
4

Transfer roast to platter, tent with foil. Transfer apples and potatoes to large bowl. Tent with foil. Let roast rest at least 10 minutes.
5

Combine last three ingredients in a measuring cup. Stir into juices in crockery. Cook 1-2 minutes, until thick. Serve over roast and apples/sweet potatoes. Enjoy.
