Mom's Pork Roast

Step 1

Put the roast in a speckled roaster with a lid or something similar. Make sure the fat cap side is up. There will be a side with a layer of fat, that is the fat cap.

Step 2

Season the top with the salt, pepper, onion and garlic and onion powders, sugar and caraway seeds.

Step 3

No liquid needs to be added, the meat will make its own steam and liquid as it cooks.

Step 4

Cover and roast at 325 degrees for about 4 or 5 hours. Halfway through if you check and it's super dry, add a half cup of water and turn down the temperature to 300 degrees.

Step 5

Low and slow is the key, it will brown evenly even when covered.

Step 6

When you can pull the bone right out or the meat pulls apart easily, it's done.

Step 7

Serve with a packet of knorr brand brown gravy made according to the package and add some of the drippings from the pan to the gravy.
