Delicious! So good, the flavor was amazing. Good quantity. Kids liked the meat also.
ReplyDeleteI learned a lot from cooking this! You said to discard the marinade before baking. I thought I would just keep it and pour it over the rice I made with it. I poured it over the meat and baked as directed. It burned all over the bottom of the roaster pan. It took me weeks of soaking and scrubbing and it is still not all off of my pan. Lesson learned! It took about 1 1/2 hours for our roast to cook to 170. Parts of it were dried out at that point, and parts were fine. I'm not sure if it was my thermometer or if I just have bad luck cooking roasts in the oven. I may slow cook it next time. Sure smelled good while it was cooking!
