This is one of my favorite pork roast recipes. It's so easy to make and always turns out delicious. The pork is always tender and juicy, and the gravy is rich and flavorful. I love serving it with mashed potatoes and green beans.

This recipe was okay, but I've definitely had better. The pork was a bit dry and the gravy was too salty. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This pork roast was a disaster! The meat was tough and dry, and the gravy was lumpy and tasteless. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. The pork was cooked well, but it lacked flavor. The gravy was also very thin. I would recommend adding more spices and herbs to the recipe.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. The pork itself was very tender and juicy, and the gravy was delicious. I would recommend trying this recipe if you like spicy food.
