I'm having my new girlfriend nad her parents over this weekend and plan on making a pork roast. I've never done this before and have a feeling I'm going to screw it up. I'd like to make it with roasted potatoes and carrots.

I'm hoping someone can help me out! I have a slow cooker but I would rather do it in the oven so it browns and looks more appealing.

My questions are:

1. How long do I cook it for and at wht temperature? I do have a meat thermometer?

2. Do I ad water to the roating pan? Does it go fat side up or down?

3. What are thbest potatoes for roasting and how do I get them and the carrots nice and brown? Do they go in the same time as the roast?

4. What do I do for gravy? I'm scared to make it as I've never done it before. Should I use a canned chicken gravy?

Any help is GREATLY appreciated!!!!
