Awesome ... with a few tweeks.

I herbed the pork roast in thyme, sage, rosemary.
I added two cloves of garlic to the apples/onions when roasting.
I used one Fuji apple and one Granny Smith.

When making the gravy, I added a touch of dijon and worcestershire to offest the sweetness of the apple and the cider. And then tossed in sauted button mushrooms. I wanted mine to be a little more gravy-like (to go with the sour cream and horseradish mashed potatoes, so also added a teaspoon of flour and 1/2 c chicken stock, and then little it simmer for 10 mins.

This gravy on these mashed potatoes was killer.
The pork was fork tender (no knife needed.

You rock Claire.

Made this with regular Apple Cider and it turned out excellent. I could eat this gravy on just about anything!

This is my go to pork roast recipe. My family just loves it because most pork roasts are tough and this comes out so tender. The only changes I made was to add ground sage to the pork when seasoning it prior to browning and also doubling the onions, apples and cider. My family loves the gravy so I make extra to pour over mashed potatoes. I season the onions and apples with ground sage also prior to sauteing. I serve this with Ina Gartin's sauteed cabbage. It is a wonderful meal. I've even served it at dinner parties.

I like to cook but never do. I saw this made on TV and thought I'd give it a shot and was not disappointed! It's easy to do and it came out great. Roast was moist and the gravy was a perfect compliment.

This was a tasty, easy dinner. The roast was moist and delicious. The gravy was the perfect finish. I will be making this hearty dish again. I served kale with sautéed mushrooms and oven roasted red potatoes.. Bravo to Claire.

This is the first recipe I have made from food network and I loved it! I admit... I can never follow a recipe to a T so I added a little bit of brown sugar to help cut the sour bite of the apples. But I am sure it would have been just as fantastic without it. My husband loved it when he came home. The meat is nice and juicy and the gravy is soo good. I plan on making some mashed potatos tomorrow and using the leftover gravy to have a yummy meal! I know this will be made again soon!!!

Made this last week, followed the recipe exactly and it was scrumptous!! I didn't have to reduce the sauce at all, took the pot out of the oven, removed the roast to let it rest, pureed the apples and onions and it was done!! I am really liking these 5 ingredient recipes - way to go Claire :

I was really looking forward to this dish, but we did not care for it. The sauce tasted "off" and a little sour - and not sour in a good way. I'm going to try again using a different apple- maybe a Honey Crisp as someone else suggested, and maybe adding a little regular apple cider to see if that helps. Having said that, the collard green recipe from the same episode were great.
