It's true, "Less is more." A few simple ingredients resulted in BIG flavor. I've made it twice to rave reviews. I gave the recipe to a friend and she was sure I had to be ommiting some ingredients. It's a keeper for sure.

Really great way to cook pork! I used pork steak and pureed fresh cranberries. Goes really well with a side of mashed sweet potatoes, the flavors really complement each other.

This was suprisingly good given the combination of ingredients. Very easy. Came out extremely tender. Served it with rice pilaf and green beans and was a hit, though not "wow" enough for 5 stars. Will be making it again though.

This receipe was really good. I changed it up a bit because of another recipe I saw. I added a can of crushed pineapple along with the whole cranberry and nutmeg and cloves and didnt use the salad dressing or onion. I also seasoned the porkloin with onion and garlic powder and pan fried it quickly till it was brown. Then threw all the ingredients in the slow cooker and added chicken stock to cover the meat. I put it on for 6 hours on high. The pork loin pulled apart very easily and was quite yummy. Served it with brown rice and asparagus for myself, hubby had green beans instead! we had plenty of leftovers so we can make some pulled pork sandwiches another day.

I made this for dinner tonight, and it was pretty good. I think the recipe may need a little tweaking though. I used thick-cut boneless pork chops instead of a tenderloin, and they turned out a little tough but that was probably my fault. The sweet and tangy together work great, and I think I'll be having this for dinner again soon.

Very good dish and not at all expensive, I used one can of jelled and one can of whole berries and had rave reviews... Made it a second time for Easter, this time I added slices of fresh Jalapeno without the seeds. It was so awesome, not hot but the flavor exploded...

My family loved this recipe! I made a couple of modifications such as seasoning the meat with seasoned salt and then browning on all sides before placing roaster and I used Western dressing instead of French. I also didn't have time to use the slow cooker so I just added all of the ingredients and baked on @ 350 for 2 hours. Will definately make again!

This was delicious. I used a 6lb pork loin cut in half. I patted 3 cloves of finely diced garlic into the roast, shook on some salt and pepper, increased the dressing to 2/3C because of the size of the roast, used catalina dressing instead of french as others suggested and one can of cranberry sauce, mine had whole berries. I served this tonight and it got rave reviews, especially from my son and husband who are not cranberry fans. It did cook quicker than expected. Mine was done in about five hours but stayed moist on warm. Plenty of juice to use for gravy. Thanks for this great recipe.

Wow. I don'e eat meat, and work during the day, so easy, delicious ideas for dinner are always welcome. My husband said that this is the best thing I've prepared yet (he doesn't know there's french dressing in it, thank goodness!). I also made it for my mom who wanted the recipe. I almost hated giving away that it was such a simple recipe! Makes great sandwiches the next few days.

This was a easy/cheap dinner and it was a hit. My husband is no fan of cranberry or french dressing and he loved this roast and asked me to make it again. I served it with Sweet Potatoes.

This was awesome! I forgot to put it into the crockpot in time, so I put it in the oven in a pyrex and cooked it on 375 for 45 minutes and it was awesome!!

AMAZING! I used jellied cranberry sauce and I'm glad because it made a smooth sauce. I seasoned the meat as suggested. We loved it. I served it with garlic mashed potatoes and green beans.

I didn't have a pork roast so I used 3 pork chops instead. I added 1 thinly sliced celery rib and about 1/2 t of chili powder plus the recommended garlic, salt, and pepper. The sauce was very good. It resembles the polynesian sauce you get at Chick-Fil-A. I served it with potatoes and cabbage, but with so much delicious sauce, I think it would have been much better with rice.

This is so delicious and so easy! The pork loin I used fell apart after 8 hours in the slow cooker. I changed nothing and was able to make a delicious pork gravy by taking the drippings and heating them with flour. Served with mashed potatoes and beans. WILL SERVE AGAIN!

The tenderest pork I have ever made. I think that the cranberry/french dressing sauce should be doubled, but cut back to half an onion. My meat let out so much juice that it completely diluted the cranberry taste. It was still good tho..we ate it all :)

So wonderful! My husband doesn't love cranberry, but he loved the pork. It was so tender and juicy, it just fell apart into lovely pieces. I served it with rice and green beans, and it was requested for another day as well. Wonderful recipe! Total keeper.

This was wonderful!!! Do not let the ingredients scare you. We had the leftovers as sandwiches and it was even better the 2nd night. I will double the onion next time because they turned out nice and sweet, even the kids loved them. This is one of our new family favorites.

I gave this 1 star because it did turn out very tender and just fell apart. However, I'm not sure exactly what I did wrong but it had no flavor. Maybe because I used fat free french? I'm not sure but my husband wouldn't eat it and my kids wouldn't touch it. Thanks anyway!
