How to Make Autumn Harvest's Best Pork Roast

Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
Pat the pork roast dry with paper towels and season generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
In a large bowl, combine the chopped apples, onion, and celery. Toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Place the apple mixture in the bottom of a roasting pan.
Place the seasoned pork roast on top of the apple mixture.
Roast for approximately 490 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the roast registers 145°F (63°C). Baste the roast with pan juices every 30 minutes.
Remove the roast from the oven and let it rest for at least 15-20 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful roast.
Skim excess fat from the pan juices. Whisk in the apple cider vinegar and chicken broth to create a delicious pan sauce.
Carve the pork roast and serve with the apple pan sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley or thyme, if desired.
