How To Make easy pork roast in apple juice

• Step 1
  Heat oven to 350 degrees.
• Step 2
  On top of the stove with medium temperature, add oil to a dutch oven (with a lid) and add the diced onions and peppers. Sauté the vegetables for about 5 minutes until soft.
• Step 3
  Rub the pork roast liberally with a pork seasoning mixture. (Or make a rub by mixing as desired: 1-2 Tbsps. brown sugar, and 1 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. each paprika, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, and 1/4 tsp. pepper, and a pinch of cayenne pepper.)
• Step 4
  Set the roast with the rub on the sautéd onions and peppers. Add the apple juice.
• Step 5
  Cover the dutch oven with the lid and put into the oven. Set the timer for 1 hour.
• Step 6
  After an hour, check the liquid level. Add water if necessary to maintain the original liquid level. Turn the oven down to 275 degrees. Set the timer for one hour.
• Step 7
  After the second hour, check the liquid level again and add water if necessary to maintain the original liquid level. Maintaining 275 degrees, roast for 1 more hour.
• Step 8
  After the roast has been in the oven for 3 hours, remove the pot from the oven and allow to set for 15 - 30 minutes.
• Step 9
  The roast is now ready to pull or slice: Remove any fat that is visible. Pull or slice and add meat to the cooking liquid for serving. (Or put roast and cooking liquid in a plastic container and refrigerate the roast whole in the cooking liquid and slice when cold. Discard any congealed fat.)
• Step 10
  Note: I usually freeze serving sizes of sliced meat and cooking liquid. In the cooking liquid, this meat freezes and warms well!!
• Step 11
  Serve warmed pork with teriyaki or barbecue sauce as desired.
