very good! Didn't have a lemon so used orange juice which worked fine. Served for brunch with a dollop of vanilla yogurt- yum!

I have a very similar recipe I have been using for years. It uses 1 1/2 c. flour and 3/4 c. quick oats instead and adds 1/2 t. nutmeg, 1 cup each chocolate chips, and nuts in addition. Try it this way and you will find it less "cakey". Also, they never really "brown", use parchment paper, NOT Silpat liners. Always get requests for this recipe!

I ended up only cooking my 2.5 lb. roast for 1 1/4 hours based on reviews but the meat was not tender at all (fairly chewy) so I would go longer next time or maybe try the 8 hrs at 200 deg. The gravy was excellent. Worth trying again.
