But don’t just take it from us, here are some of the review that people left on the recipe at tasteofhome.com:
“The sauce makes this recipe incredible. Sliced cold with the sauce spread on bread for sandwiches is great for lunches too.”
“This is really good. I made it the first time and my family fell in love with it! I will definitely make this again!”
“I love the spices on this roast, but it’s the horseradish sauce that accompanies it that keeps this recipe in my regular rotation. I, too, have overcooked the roast before, but realized I had a 3 pound one, so needed to adjust the time. Also, using a meat thermometer can help avoid overcooking.”
