Recipe Ingredients:

2 (16-ounce) cans jellied cranberry sauce
1/2 cup Splenda® Granulated No Calorie Sweetener
1/2 cup cranberry juice
1 teaspoon mustard powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
4 pounds pork roast
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons cold water
Salt to taste

Cooking Directions:

1. Mash cranberry sauce with a fork or a potato masher. Stir in Splenda® Granulated Sweetener, cranberry juice, mustard, and cloves.
2. Place pork roast in a large, roasting pan. Pour cranberry sauce mixture over the roast.
3. Bake in a preheated oven at 275°F (135°C) for 6 to 8 hours, or until meat is tender. Remove roast, and keep warm.
4. With a metal spoon, skim the fat from the liquid in the roasting pan. Pour 2 cups of the remaining roasting liquid (add water to fill out the measure if necessary) into a small saucepan.
