A Very Special Pot Roast For The Crock Pot
Spices and mixed dried fruit make a great flavor for this roast--it's a family favorite. (don't confuse the dried fruit bits you buy for baking--look for packages of regular size dried apples, peaches, pears and plums).

Brown meat on top of stove in a dutch oven.
Brown on all side using the 1 tablespoon of cooking oil.

Place the fruit in the slow cooker.
Add the onion wedges.
Place the meat on top of the fruit and onion.
Sprinkle with allspice and pour in the apple juice.
