Easy Pork Roast with Pan Gravy Recipe

As a nice German girl, I grew up with Sunday dinners that consisted of roasts and family meals. I still enjoy roasts and have mastered the preparation that my whole family loves. I am often requested to make my “famous” pork roast for family functions and when we have special guests. This recipe is simple and easy! I know you and your family will love it too.

Easy Pork Roast with Pan Gravy Recipe

Ingredients:

4-5 lb pork roast – I prefer boneless, but whatever is on sale
Lawrys Season Salt
Garlic Powder
Onion Powder
Fresh Cracked Pepper
2 cups Water

Directions

Season your roast with each ingredient. I do season it well as that is what gives the meat that crusty top. Place roast in a roasting pan, uncovered. Bake at 350 for 45 minutes to brown the roast. Add 2 cups of water to the roasting pan and cover with a lid. Continue to bake about 2 more hours. Check the roast for tenderness. It should be close to pull apart tender. Recover and turn the heat to 275 for an additional 30 minutes to 1 hour for deliciously, tender meat.

Pan Gravy Recipe – optional

To make an easy gravy, use the drippings to make pan gravy by adding two cups of water to the roasting pan to get all of the meat drippings. Sprinkle small amounts of Wondra Gravy Flour (flour works too) into the pan, stirring constantly and vigorously with a whisk, while bringing it to a boil. It will continue to thicken as it boils. Add small amounts of flour or Wondra while stirring to bring it to the consistency you like. Then re-season the gravy with the same seasonings above, as needed.

Serve this with your favorite potato and vegetable and enjoy!
