Do you have a special Recipe that you only prepare on Holidays?
At our home, our Crown Pork Roast Recipe symbolizes a special occasion. It is that one item that we don’t cook any other time than Christmas and Easter. It is something that we have come to know as a special Recipe.
It is actually very easy to prepare but there is something so special about that beautiful Crown of Pork when it comes out of the oven and gets carved Around the Family Table.
If you have not tried a Crown Pork Roast, you have no idea how juicy the pork. I would encourage everyone to try preparing it at least once. I promise you family will be hooked.

When the kids were little, I usually organized an egg hunt or we’d do something else that was Easter-related. Looking at this dish, though, made me think my husband would TOTALLY ADORE it – he’s a big fan of stuff like this. I just bookmarked it!
