This recipe was not to my liking. It was well cooked but that is about all I can say. Tasted REALLY bland. Unlike a lot of reviewers I always follow the recipe exactly before I rate it so I can give an honest rating on the actual recipe as written. My opinion: SKIP IT!

Very easy to make and very good. I put the garlic cloves into the roast and this was the most tender pork roast I've ever cooked!

very tasty. the Pork roast had the consistency of chuck roast or brisket. It just pulled apart. I liked that, but my husband didnt like the consistency.

Followed the recipe exactly as written, and the end result was a little bland for our tastes. Hubby ate it after dousing it with pepper, but after one bite, the kids wouldn't touch it. Still searching for a good, basic, crock pot pork roast.

Delicious! I was a bit worried about the sweet potatoes, because we aren't big fans, but I thought it complimented the pork extremely well. The pork itself so so moist and tender. My potatoes were very mushy, so next time I make this I will add them later on rather than at the beginning. I made a gravy with the stock, and while it was delicious, you really don't need gravy with this meal. We can't wait to have this again.

I used a pressure cooker, because I needed to cook faster. For those who complained about the meat being dry: If you used a pork loin, there is very little fat in a loin to keep the meat from drying out. I used country-style boneless pork ribs, and it turned out very moist and juicy. Yes, the sweet potatoes do tend to get mushy - they cook very fast in relation to the meat. I added them about half-way through the process and they were good. I think that next time, I would bake the sweet potatoes - or I'll try it with red potatoes instead.

I changed the recipe by adding russet potatoes instead of the sweet, and the pork turned out VERY dry. So I cannot honestly rate the recipe since I tweeked it. I don't think ppl should rate the recipe 5 stars if they had to change it. I rated the recipe according the taste of the roast - too darn dry.

This is a quick and easy recipe!! Came out wonderful! My husband liked it and he is a PICKY eater!! I also made a few modifications. I used canola oil to brown it. I shoved cloves of garlic in it for more flavor, and used regular potatoes instead of sweet (hubby and I don't like them LOL). I also used beef broth (I didn't have chicken). Came out tasty and meat was tender! I will DEFINATELY make this again and maybe add some carrots and try the chicken broth. Thank you for a great recipe!! ~Ina :)

This is one of the best meals I have had in a long time. We baked potatoes instead of putting in the sweet since that is what we had on hand. I seasoned with garlic powder and seasoned salt, seared then placed in slow cooker for 4 hours. It was tender as can be! Served with salad, peas and baked potatoes. I would normally make a gravy from the drippings, but I am the only one in my family who likes gravy.

This was falling apart, it was so tender. The sweet potatoes were like mush, even after following suggestion to place on top of roast. In addition, if you are going to make a gravy from some of the "juices", you may have to doctor it up a lot to get rid of that sweet potato flavor. I love sweet potatoes but will surely leave them out next time.

I guess I was expecting something with a lot more flavor. I even used a pork rub on it, still pretty bland. The sweet potatoes came out perfect.

Very good, my husband loved it! I omitted the sweet potato's, made mashed instead. I sprinkled garlic powder on the roast before browning it and then added 6 whole cloves of garlic to the crock pot. When it was done I removed the roast and added little more salt & pepper & corn starch to thicken the juice, while this was thicking I sliced the roast and then put it in the gravy. We had enough gravy for the mashed potato's also.

This was good. I used regular potatoes since that's what I had in the pantry. I followed the advise of others and seasoned the pork wiht Old Bay seasoning and added extra garlic. I probably could have used a little more seasoning but I would rather under-season than over-season. Hubby said he'd like to try this again with some additional seasoning.
