I had a coupon for a Smithfield’s seasoned pork roast, so I decided to buy one last week and we tried it out last night.  It was the one that is seasoned with herbs and stuffed with Wild Rice.  It took longer to cook than it was supposed to, which I guess is normal for most roasts - it is aggravating when the directions say 22 minutes per pound and you have 1 1/2 pounds and it takes an hour to cook!  I know the temperature on my oven is good, I bought TWO oven thermometers and they say it is right on.  Anyway, it took longer to cook than it was supposed to, which is aggravating.

I guess my entire family is not a big fan of heavily seasoned items, we found this to be way too spicy hot with black pepper and way too heavy on the garlic.  We would have liked it much better if the seasoning was cut in half.  I might buy it again and then wipe off half of the seasoning before cooking it!
