Just put the rub on the roast seems very garlicky hoping it will be ok

Sounds amazing I am making it Thursday for my family. Question says to rub the mixture and then place it fat side up? I assume I must have to rub it around the entire piece of meat not just on the top??

Since I LOVE garlic I absolutely loved the flavor of this roast. So quick to put together and so moist, a REAL keeper.

Great results, very simple, a juicy tender Roast

Terrific, easy way for a great pork roast! Who says good cooking has to be hard or time-consuming? I find that most of today's cuts of pork roast are extremely lean, so cook it the minimum time and be sure to let it stand the 10 minutes to keep it juicy. Get a thermometer and use it after the first 2 hours.
