|
Ingredients
1 boneless pork loin roast (2 pounds)
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon butter or margarine, melted
1 cup prepared (moistened) stuffing
1 cup diced dried fruit and raisin mixture
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 cup apple juice or cider
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
Directions
Cut horizontally down center length of pork to within
3/4 inch of opposite side. Open flat. From center, cut
horizontally to within 3/4 inch from left side edge.
Turn pork; repeat cutting to other side; open flat. If
pork is thicker than 3/4 inch, cover pork with plastic
wrap and pound until about 3/4-inch thickness. Remove
plastic wrap. Mix mustard and butter. Spread half of
mustard mixture on inside surfaces of pork. Mix stuffing
and fruit; spread over mustard-coated surfaces. Roll roast;
tie with kitchen twine. Spread remaining mustard mixture
over outside of roast; rub with brown sugar. In 12-inch
nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook
pork in oil until brown on all sides. Place pork in 4 1/2-
to 6-quart slow cooker. Pour apple juice into skillet;
cook 2 to 3 minutes to dissolve any caramelized juices
in bottom of skillet. Stir in salt and pepper; pour over
pork. Cook on low heat setting 6 to 8 hours or until meat
thermometer inserted into center of pork reads 160°F.
