Cranberry Pork Loin (crock pot style)
3 lb pork loin
14 oz can of jellied cranberry sauce
1/2 cup of cranberry juice
1/2 cup of sugar
1 teas. mustard
1/2 teas. ground cloves
2 tbsp. cornstarch
2 tbsp. water
In a medium bowl, combine the jellied cranberry sauce, cranberry juice, sugar, mustard, and cloves. Put the pork loin in a large crock pot, and pour the cranberry mixture over the loin. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours.
Remove loin from crock pot. It should shred easily, if it's done. Set aside.....
Pour all the liquid from the crock pot in a saucepan. Bring liquid to a boil over medium heat. While you are waiting for it to boil, combine the water and cornstarch in a separate bowl. Add to the liquid once it's boiling. Stir until the liquid thickens. It will serve as the gravy!
Whip up some mashed potatoes as a side, and cover everything with the gravy......
Unexpected taste explosion. The leftovers are great too.
So, if you are also experiencing fall-in-the-summer, drag out the crock pot for this easy, tasty dinner! Then come back and tell me how much you loved it!
