Crock Pot Pork Roast with Vegetables and Gravy

I have shared a recipe like this with you all before, but I saw a different recipe from my friend Jamie on her site Jamie Cooks It Up. I decided to give her version a try. Her crock pot pork roast with vegetables and gravy includes soy sauce and balsamic dressing.

It turned out tasty and includes a side or potatoes and carrots along with gravy. I served the carrots but added the potatoes to some others that I cooked on the stove top and mashed them together. My family loves mashed potatoes with their roast and gravy.

I did like this but must admit, I do like the over version I have that includes rosemary better. I would however love to make this roast without the veggies and gravy. The roast is very flavorful. I think you could use the same idea and marinate pork chops with the same ingredients and grill it.
