I use this little strainer jug to make gravy for all my slow cooker roast meals - when you can so easily remove the fat from the cooking liquid, why wouldn't you!
Seasoned, well flavored roasted pork is so delicious and easy - it seems such a shame to not serve it this way occasionally. Especially when it even almost makes it's own tasty gravy.
Slow cooker roast pork is always so soft and tender too - love it done this way!
