This was ok - I left out the salt and used a Low Sodium Soy sauce, becasue I'm not big on salt. The garlic gave it a good flavor throughout,though. Might be better cooked in the oven, than the crock pot - it did tend to be rather dry - but was certainly tender. -
The flavor of the sauce was very nice, but the roast came out extremely dry. Maybe it needs to be browned in a skillet first. -
I found this too salty so I would probably omit the salt or def use less.

Very tasty!! I made it low carb by using Splenda. My DD wants me to make more!

I'm a self-love coach who happens to love food. I cook almost daily for my husband of over 30 years and special needs daughter. I rarely follow a recipe exactly. I tweak them to my own taste. I have a few recipes that are uniquely my own.
