Crock Pot Pork with Winter Fruits

Recipe #16586 | 6¼ hours | 15 min prep | SERVES 4 -6 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: DiB's

We really like this, and there's always a small war over the apricots. Sometimes I strain the juice, add some soy sauce with a little bit of cornstarch to thicken and pour this on top.

    My guests loved this, I did not add the wine and I used a pork shoulder roast. The flavors were great and the presentation when laid out on the platter was lovely!
