CROCK POT PORK ROAST WITH APRICOT AND HORSERADISH

Crock Pot Pork Roast With Apricot and Horseradish image

I got this recipe from a friend. You can also use pork chops. I'm guessing on the sizes of the jars. Just mix 1 to 1. NOTE: You must use horseradish SAUCE, not ground horseradish. Ground is way too powerful! :)

1 (12 ounce) jar horseradish sauce

Tips:

To ensure a tender and juicy pot roast, choose a well-marbled cut of beef, such as chuck roast or rump roast.
For a richer flavor, brown the beef in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat before adding the other ingredients.
A combination of apricot preserves, soy sauce, and red wine provides a sweet and savory sauce for the pot roast.
To prevent the sauce from burning, add a little bit of water or beef broth to the pot.
For a more flavorful sauce, sauté onions, garlic, and carrots in the pot before adding the beef and other ingredients.
Cover the pot and let the roast cook over low heat for several hours, until the meat is fall-apart tender.
Serve the pot roast with mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles.
