Servings: 12

3 Lb. Pork Shoulder, whole, lean, Raw (Boneless)
2Tbls. Soy Sauce, Low Sodium
1½ Tsp. Anise Seed Crushed
1½ Tsp. Fennel Seed, Crushed

Remove the fat from meat. If needed, cut meat to fit into a 3 1/2 to 5-quart slow cooker. Brush the soy sauce over the meat. Take a large piece of foil and combine all the seeds. Roll roast in seeds to coat evenly. Place the meat in the crockpot. Pour the broth and 1/3 cup of the apple juice around meat. Cover and cook on low-heat setting 9 to 10 hours or on high-heat setting for 4 1/2 to 5 1/2 hours. Place meat on a serving platter, reserving cooking liquid. Cover the meat with foil to keep warm. For gravy, strain the liquid and skim fat. Transfer liquid to a small saucepan. In a small bowl mix the remaining 1/3 cup apple juice and cornstarch. Slowly stir into liquid in saucepan. Cook and stir over medium heat until thickened and bubbly. Continue to cook and stir 2 minutes longer. Serve gravy with meat. Makes: 12, 4 oz. servings.
