Granny's Pork Roast With Sweet Potatoes
-
1 boneless pork roast (4 lbs), trimmed of fat
-
1/3 cup honey
-
1/4 cup orange juice
-
1/4 cup frozen apple juice concentrate, thawed
-
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
-
1 tablespoon brown sugar, packed
-
3 large sweet potatoes, halved
-
3 large apples, cored and quartered
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Coat a large Dutch oven with no-stick spray and place over medium-high
heat until hot. Add the pork. Cook for 2 minutes, or until brown. Turn and cook
for 2 minutes, or until brown. Remove from the heat.
In a medium bowl, combine the honey, orange juice, apple juice
concentrate, pepper, and brown sugar. Spoon over the pork. Place the sweet
potatoes around the pork. Cover and bake for 2 hours, or until the pork has an
internal temperature of 150 degrees F.
Place the apples around the pork. Bake, uncovered and basting frequently,
for 20 minutes, or until the apples are just tender. Let the pork stand for 10
minutes before slicing. Serve with the sweet potatoes and apples.

Every child has great ambitions. As he grows, he is bombarded by
negative suggestions -- you can't do this; you can't do that; be careful; look
for security, and so on. Year by year, he experiences the "realities"
of life, and his ambitions fade away. Figuratively speaking, most children die
by the time they reach their adulthood.
