Garlic Apple Pork Roast

I found this in the February/March 2020 issue of  Taste of Home.  I like to try different things with pork roasts and this recipe looks delish.  The recipe uses a slow cooker but I bet it will be good in the smoker as well.

1 boneless pork loin roast (3 1/2 to 4 pounds)
1 12oz. jar apple jelly
1/2 C. water
2 1/2 tsp. minced garlic
1 tbsp. dried parsley flakes
1 to 1 1/2 tsp. seasoned salt
1 to 1 1/2 tsp. pepper

Cut the roast in half; place in a 5qt. slow cooker.  In a small bowl, combine the jelly, water, and garlic; pour over the roast.

Cover and cook on low until meat is tender; 8-10 hours. Let stand 15 minutes before slicing.  Serve with cooking juices if desired.
