Gwynn, this was absolutely the most delectable pork roast we have ever had! I must say, I was a little nervous as it seemed to me that there was going to be a lot of apple flavour, but my DH wanted apple...so....I went ahead with the recipe. I used apple juice, as I had no cider. So, down to the making of this recipe. I made it just as described, although I think that next time I will roll the roast in breadcrumbs BEFORE stuffing, as I had a hard time rolling and having the stuffing fall out. Otherwise, it was made exactly as described. The sauce was something else I was unsure of, it seemed a little thin to me and I was worried that I didn't reduce it enough, but it was so flavourful! The sounds around the table were "Mmmmmm"" "wow" and "this is awesome!" This was a very simple recipe that turned out beautifully. I would serve this to guests in a heartbeat, it is that good. This is going in my all-time favourites cookbook! Thanks for posting!
