This was awful. I followed the recipe except I used 1/2 cup salt in the blend and even so it was so salty. I can't believe the reviews stating it was wonderful, it did smell good while it was cooking, but it tasted awful. I usually like Paula's recipe but this was a huge disappointment. My butt was 6.91 pounds and I used 1/2 of the salt but it was still way too salty. Very disappointed!!!

This was loved by everyone at the table, great-grandparents to children alike. My roast was 3lbs. so I cooked it for 2hrs 15 min, 160 degrees. I took all the drippings, minus the leaves, brought it to a simmer and thickened with 1 tbsp. corn starch for tomorrow night's leftovers!

This recipe is one I will keep and use over and over again. Just wonderful flavor, easy to make and raved about by our guests!
I sometimes add southwestern chipolte sauce to the mix while it is cooking. Not exactly Southern cooking but I also love southwestern flavor!!
