  • 2-3 pounds pork loin roast
  • Salt and pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium white onion, chopped
  • 1 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/4 cup Cascadian Farm™ organic blackberry fruit spread
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder

Instructions

  • Step 
    1
    Season pork roast with salt and pepper on all sides. Heat a large cast iron skillet or sturdy pan over medium-high heat.
  • Step 
    2
    Add oil to the pan and once the oil is hot, add pork roast and sear for 2-3 minutes on all sides.
  • Step 
    3
    Transfer pork to a slow cooker with chopped onions, dried cranberries, jam, spices and stock.
  • Step

    Pour water into the pan used to sear the pork and scrape up any bits in the pan. Pour that liquid over the pork in the slow cooker.
  • Step 
    5
    Cover slow cooker and cook on high for 90-120 minutes. Test pork temperature with a meat thermometer. It should register 145-150°F in the thickest part of the roast. Remove meat to a serving tray and thicken sauce, if desired, by continuing to cook in slow cooker a few minutes more (or by mixing a teaspoon of corn starch with a teaspoon of water until smooth and whisking it into the sauce).
