I utilized the basic idea of this recipe but instead of cherries..but used a large can of whole apricots with juice, mixed in brown sugar, honey, garlic pepper, minced garlic, and a few squirts of spicy mustard and mashed it all together for the glaze...turned out WONDERFUL and definately full of flavor!!!!! can add even more spice if desired...also, I stuffed it with minced garlic as it spreads the flavor better than the cloves....

This roast was dissappointing. It was tender and moist which is why I gave it 3 stars...but it had no taste and I had to end up throwing BBQ sauce on the leftovers to get anyone to eat it. Will not try again.

This was very good! I did not have an oven bag, so I just wrapped it loosely in tin foil and put in a roasting pan. It came out great! Thanks

I just made this awhile ago. It is truly succulent as the name implies! The meat is so tender and juicy and the sauce from the cherries and meat is exquisite. It's not overly salty, which is good, and that's probably why a couple reviewers said it is bland. I disagree and find it delicious, and would fix it again. The better half said, "Good meal!" That's good enough for me!

Very good recipe, the entire family loves it. I have never used the oven bag but the roast still turns out perfect every time.

I used these same ingredients and cooked a frozen roast in a slow cooker all day on "low" (minus the roasting bag). It was a hit with the whole family! Thank you. ...Pam

I found this to be very bland. It sounded so interesting but we were very disappointed. I even marinated it over night yet found nothing tasty about it at all.

Husband loved this recipe, but I found that there was something lacking but can't quite figure out exactly what. So easy to make though, even for me!!

This was my first attempt at a bone-in pork roast. It was so simple to prepare and my husband loved it. I only had a half a jar of cherries so I added a little extra water and I didn't have a roasting bag so I cooked it in covered Pyrex. I used the drippings to make gravy and it came out excellent. Now I just have to learn how to carve one of these roasts!

This recipe is definitely a keeper! I have cooked this twice in the last two weeks and enjoyed it both times! I made it over the weekend for about 20 guests for a Father's Day Lunch and everyone raved. Very flavorful and juicy. I am not even a fan of the maraschino cherries, but I love love love this recipe.

Here's a thought for "AHERDOFUS". Try inserting the garlic halfs into the roast. This recipe ROCKS! My family loved it, and they are very picky eaters.

Very good roast. I overcooked it by 30 mins (oops, talking to the neighbor again). I will definately make this again. It had great flavor.

This is the BEST PORK EVER. I have made it twice and can't rave enough about it. I served it to my parents and sister and they went on and on about how amazing it was. It is so moist and tender and flavourful. The only change I made was to add about 1/3 of a cup of concentrated hot wassail (which was sitting on the back of the stove) to the drippings to make the gravy and it was incredible. The sweetness of the apple cider with the saltiness of the pork and the cherry juice..... Mmmmmmmm.

Wow, very good pork roast followed the recipe and it was great. My husband just loved it.

This was a very good roast. I tried it because i had a pork roast to use up. I'm not normally a big pork fan but this one was definitely good. If ever i have to make pork roast again, I know which recipe to use. My husband loved it.

This was the best pork roast I have ever had. Even my picky daughter liked it!

This recipe is WONDERFUL! We tried it with boneless pork roast and cooked it to 160. Since it was boneless, it took even less time than the posted receipe! We shared 20 pounds of the cooked meat, served with garlic mashed potatoes, mixed vegetables and cresesnt rolls to 36 of our fellow VFW and American Legion members for a recent K.C. Chiefs' football game! Many responses were "the best pork roast they have ever had...." "Wonderful" nd "Succulent" is VERY understated! It was the talk of the weekend and past week! Many have requested the receipe from us. The cherries really add to the flavor and color of the roast! SO VERY EASY! YUMMY!

This recipe was quite bland. I found the cherrys to be an interesting choice of ingedients, but was expecting a much more savory dish. The roast did come out very moist and tender, but did not have much taste.
