Slow-Cooked Pork With Root Vegetables

• 3 large sweet potatoes (about 2-1/4 pounds)
• 2 medium turnips
• 1 tart medium apple
• 1/4 cup water
• 1 medium onion, quartered
• 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1-1/2 teaspoons paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 1 boneless pork loin roast (3 to 4 pounds)
• 1/2 cup unsweetened apple juice
• 2 tablespoons cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
• 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

1. Peel and cut sweet potatoes, turnips and apple into 3/4-in. pieces. Microwave sweet potatoes, turnips and water, covered, on high until just slightly tender, 8-10 minutes. Drain; transfer to a 6-qt. slow cooker. Add apple and onion. In a small bowl, mix brown sugar, salt, paprika and pepper; rub over meat and place in slow cooker.
2. Whisk remaining ingredients; pour around pork. Cook, covered, on low until a thermometer reads 145u0b0 and the meat is tender, 3-1/2 to 4-1/2 hours.
3. Remove roast from slow cooker; tent with foil. Let stand 15 minutes before slicing. Strain cooking juices; serve pork and vegetables with juices.
