This was a great crown roast. Very easy instructions to follow. Made it yesterday for Christmas. Did not expect it to be so delicious, moist and tender. The seasoning was what you make it, or any type of rub, you put on it. I have made a crown roast in the past. Did not compare to this one. Thank you for such an easy recipe to follow.
Georgy, a pork crown roast is a great meal for the holidays! We are so glad you found this recipe easy to follow and delicious!
