Pawpaw'S Pot Roast - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 (5 pound) bone-in pork roast
6 cups chicken broth, or more to taste
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
salt and ground pepper to taste (optional)
1 pound red potatoes, quartered
1 (16 ounce) package baby carrots
water as needed

Preparation

Heat a 7 1/2-quart pot over medium-high heat. Sear the fat side of the roast until some of the fat renders, 2 to 3 minutes. Continue to sear pork until browned completely, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
Pour chicken broth into the pot; add Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, cinnamon, salt, and black pepper. Bring the broth to a simmer, place a cover on the pot, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook at a simmer, turning every 30 minutes, for 4 hours.
Put potatoes and baby carrots into the pot so they are covered by liquid; add enough water to ensure the bottom 2/3 of the roast remains submerged. Cover the pot and continue cooking until roast is falling from bone and vegetables are tender, 60 to 90 minutes more.
