Cranberry Pork Roast

I got this recipe from Carolyn and it was the main dish at my Relief Society's Christmas dinner this month. It's a great recipe! And it's another crockpot recipe - yay! My family really enjoyed it tonight.

Cranberry Pork Roast

3 lb boneless pork loin roast
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1, 16 oz can whole cranberry sauce
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon orange zest (the zest from 1 orange)
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg

If necessary cut roast in half to fit into crockpot. Place in crockpot and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Combine the remaining ingredients in a bowl and pour over roast. Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours. Remove roast from crockpot and slice or break into serving size pieces. Serve with sauce made out of juices (directions below).

Sauce:
Strain juices from crockpot into a saucepan. Thicken strained juices with 1 tablespoon Ultra Gel or about a tablespoon of cornstarch mixed with cold water and bring to a boil. Serve this with the pork.
