  • 4 breakfast sausage (original)
  • beef broth
  • 1-2 envelopes McCormick brown gravy mix
  • Garlic salt
  • Onion salt

Instructions
  1. Thaw roast.
  2. Place in a roasting pan and pour beef broth over the roast to moisten.
  3. Add onion and garlic salt and pepper and rosemary generously to all sides of the roast allowing excess seasonings and broth to stay in the bottom of the pan to flavour your gravy.
  4. The roast will need to cook according to suggested cooking times, and get up to at least 150 degrees internally.
  5. While this is cooking, prepare stuffing and gravy.
  6. Cook the breakfast sausage in a small fry pan.
  7. Drain the fat and chop the sausage into small pieces (I use a food chopper)... Set aside.
  8. Make the stuffing according to the "microwave" directions.
  9. Heat water and butter in the microwave and add stuffing crumbs and seasonings.
  10. Stir and add chopped sausage, dried cranberries, and a peeled diced apple.
  11. Place in a casserole dish, and set aside.
  12. Cook the stuffing for the last half hour that the roast is cooking.
  13. When the roast is done, remove your roast and let it rest covered with foil while you make the gravy.
  14. Use the pan drippings and water and the gravy mix.
  15. Then plate your stuffing on the serving platter.
  16. Slice the pork and layer it over the stuffing.
  17. Pour a small bit of gravy over the top and serve.
