Pork Crown Roast with Fruited Stuffing Supreme

Stunning to serve and deceptively easy to make, a pork crown roast is impressive. It's often available during the holidays (call your grocery store's meat department to reserve one), but your butcher can make one for you anytime.

I made this for a dinner party and I received two thumbs up from all of my guest. The meat was tender and juicy. I first thought the stuffing would be too "Fuity" but it complimented the roast perfectly. I will be making it again soon!!
