Slow-Cooked Pork with Root Vegetables image

This is truly a one-pot recipe-there's no need to brown the roast, as the rub gives it rich color. As it cooks, the house fills with the amazing aroma of apples and pork. It's a perfect dinner for a chilly autumn day. Use the cooking liquid as a sauce when you're ready to serve. And if there's any pork left over, it makes delicious pulled pork sandwiches. -Jackie Sharp, Suffolk, Virginia
