Instructions for Porketta

1 boneless pork loin, 2.5 to 3 pound 1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese 1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley 1 1/2 tablespoons coarsely cracked black peppercorns 2 large cloves of garlic, minced 1 teaspoon sugar 1 tablespoon olive oil 6 medium russet potatoes, scrubbed and quartered hot paprika 1. Using the tip of a sharp knife, cut slits 1 inch long and 1/4 inch deep all over the surface of the roast. 2. In a small bowl, combine Parmesan cheese, parsley, cracked peppercorns, garlic, and sugar. Rub mixture over the surface of the roast, making sure it gets into the slits. 3. In a large skillet, brown seasoned pork roast in oil over medium-high heat for 10 minutes, until well browned on all sides. 4. Place roast on a metal rack or trivet in a 5-quart or larger crockery slow-cooker. Sprinkle cut edges of potatoes with paprika and place potatoes around roast. Cover and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours or on high for 4 to 5 hours. 5. Transfer roast to a carving board and let stand for 10 minutes before thinly slicing. Serve with potatoes and any pan juices.

Romano for the Parmesan, dried parsley for fresh (decreasing the amount used), and I couldnt figure out how to crack my peppercorns (call me an idiot) so used coarsely ground pepper, again decreasing the amount. Also, there was no way this could be sliced "thinly". It just fell apart. But it was *really* tasty regardless of the changes. :-) Probaby will be great with all the right stuff!
