Pork Roast in a Pot

Brown the pork roast in the pot with a little olive oil and some chopped fresh garlic, salt and pepper to taste.

Cover with water, add, carrots, onions, dried mushrooms, cook it all day so that it's so tender it falls apart. Make sure you keep enough water in the pot. Later on add some potatoes, and give them time to cook.

So here's what it all looks like in the pot when it's done cooking

Take most everything out of the pot, but leave a little bit of everything in the pot for making the gravy.

I use a soup ladle to scoop a bowl of the liquid out of the pot, and mix my flour into that using a pampered chef gravy whisk that is awesome, then I take a potato masher to all the stuff left in the pot, and then stir my flour mixture back into the pot. So the gravy comes out looking like this with little bits of the whole thing in it....
