Hey everyone!  Jonathan and I have a roast recipe that we actually got from a friend.  We make it every once in a while, but it is to die for.  I thought we should post it so everyone could try it out and enjoy!  As a sidenote, we do not have amounts for each ingredient because we just throw stuff in there.  I will try to help with that as much as possible. 

Hawaiian Roast

ingredients:

one medium sized roast
one onion
a few red potatoes
button mushrooms
garlic
pineapple juice
Malibu coconut rum
applesauce
pineapple rings
rosemary
thyme
salt
pepper

How to put it all together:
Usually what we do is put the roast in the crock pot then fill it about 2/3s of the way with pineapple juice.  Then we will pour in maybe a cup or two of rum.  Mostly we just let it pour for about 15-20 seconds.  (Don’t worry, since you will be cooking it all day most of the alcohol cooks out.)  Then you cube the onion, potatoes, mushrooms and chop up your garlic.  Add those to the roast.  Then we sprinkle the fresh rosemary and thyme on the top and a little in the juice.  We Salt and Pepper it about the same.  After that we cover what’s still not covered by juice with applesauce.  Top that with some pineapple rings.  Set your crock-pot to low and let it cook all day long.  I usually do all of this at about breakfast and it is definitely ready by dinner.  When dinner comes I take out the potatoes and mash them up into mashed potatoes.  We make a gravy out of the sauce and toast a little hawaiian bread.  Voila, dinner is served!
