This was so easy and had a tasty but not overpowering flavor - almost like a porchetta. I added some water to the pan and two quartered potatoes suggested by another reviewer. I cooked some zucchini and had a "special" dinner with no fuss.

Absolutely Incredible!!! Afraid that I would loose juices by making slits in the pork, I added some olive oil to the rosemary and garlic mixture and rubbed the pork with it. Then I seared the pork on all sides in a dutch oven, giving it a beautiful crust. I also quartered a couple red potatoes, coated them with the left over mixture and roasted them around the pork.
