Ladle the accumulated juices over the roast when serving, ensuring each slice is moist and flavorful. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

For enhanced flavor, consider browning the pork roast in a skillet before adding it to the slow cooker.
Experiment with different types of applesauce, such as cinnamon or spiced varieties, to add unique flavor profiles.
Leftover juice makes an excellent base for a flavorful pan sauce. Simply simmer it in a saucepan until thickened.
