Crockpot roast

I'm new to the whole crockpot cooking scene.  Last week the husband laughed at me when I put in the chicken and bbq sauce and asked if I had to do anything else. 
So, on to recipe number 2.  Our local store had a buy1get1 deal on pork so we have a lot of pork in the house right now. 
I took the pork roast, studded it with cloves and added 2 c of apple juice, cinnamon, honey, nutmeg and a generous 1/2 c of applesauce (I didn't have the applebutter the recipe called for so I improvised) and set it in the fridge to marinade.
Husband put it on to cook the next morning and we had dinner 6-8 hour later.   WOW crockpot cooking is easy!   easy as pie!   No, wait, easier than pie!  ok, ok, I don't really think 2 things make me an expert but it certainly works for cooking meat!
Add cornstarch to liquids and you'd have a gravy too.

One of these days I am going to remember to take a picture of my food again!  Def a passable meal.
