Cris here. This recipe happened purely by accident or as Bob Ross would’ve said… a happy little accident. Ya see, I bought a 10lb pork shoulder from our local grocery store and decided to cut it into two roast because I wanted to get two recipes out of it. So with the first half I know I wanted to make our Crock Pot Mississippi Pork Roast with Vegetables but I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do with the other half… so I flipped to the index of one of my tried and true favorite cookbooks… Crock Pot The Original Slow Cooker Recipe Collection. I turned to the pork section and under pork it had mistakenly listed a “pot” roast that I then mistakenly read as a pork roast.

So I started cooking and adapting the recipe to our tastes and what I had on hand only to realize half-way through putting it together that it was calling for a beef roast… NOT a pork roast! At that point there wasn’t much to do but throw caution to the wind and give ‘er a try… and so I did and the results were FANTASTIC. Happy little accident, indeed!
