Simple Pork Roast with Onions

• 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
• 4 pounds Pork Roast
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1/2 teaspoons Pepper
• 6 whole Onions

1. Place a roasting pan or skillet over medium to medium high heat, sprinkling oil over the pan.
2. Rinse roast with cold water and salt and pepper both sides.
3. Place the roast in the pan to sear.
4. (My crock pot is the kind that can be put on the stove and then set on the crock pots heating element.
5. Its wonderful since it saves a dirty pan.
6. If you dont have this kind of crock, just use a skillet.)
7. Sear both sides of the roast evenly and well.
8. Meanwhile, slice your onions thinly as if making onion rings (teeny tiny onion rings though), certainly not restaurant-size.
9. As you get them sliced, add them to the pan while the roast is cooking.
10. If you or your family are not that fond of onions, decrease the amount.
11. What is wonderful about this recipe is the onions become soft and pick up the flavor of the pork.
12. When I started making this recipe when my children were younger, I used 2 to 4 onions.
13. After the meat is seared, place in the crock pot with the onions.
14. Set on high and cook six to eight hours.
15. This recipe requires no liquids; I guarantee it will make its own.
16. If you want to make a gravy, you can add a can of chicken stock and then when its done, remove to thicken and make your gravy.
17. This roast is fork tender when you are through and in my house, its always served with mashed potatoes.
18. This makes for a great Sunday or comfort food dinner without a lot of fuss!
