Why ruin a good roast?
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

All by itself this cut of pork is great. A little salt and pepper and a slow roast at 225 for four to five hours and you... will have great pulled pork!Read more

Don't know what we did wrong
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

Great taste but it was dry, dry, dry. Like a few others commented we tried to leave it uncovered but it got so dry that we... had to add water to the pan and cover it for the last two hours (8 in all) of cooking. Next time we'll either put it in the crock pot or a covered roaster and cut down on the salt; however, after we put bbq sauce on it the dryness seemed to be lessened.Read more

Easily adaptable to the crockpot
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this recipe while visiting my son and family. I had to make some substitutions as he did not have all the spices on... hand. Cooked it in the crock pot for 8 hours with just the dry rub on it as another reviewer suggested, and it turned out just great. The leftovers made wonderful tacos. Used corn tortillas, salsa, avocado - yummy.Read more

To answer some questions.....
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I haven't yet made this, but after reading reviews I noticed most said the spice was overpowering. One possible reason... could be they used too much of the rub? The recipe calls for 1 cup of rub, but the recipe for the rub itself makes well over 2 cups. Perhaps the previous reviewers used the entire rub recipe rather than just a portion of it? Read more

Too much of everything
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

I followed the recipe and it was terrible. My husband likes spicy food but hated this. I have too agree with him that it... was terrible.Read more
