Reviews
This was beautiful and so tender. The herb rub added flavor. I served with horseradish sauce rather than making the gravy. Great Christmas dinner, finished with mashed potatoes, shrimp and roasted Brussels sprouts.
We made this for Christmas dinner and it turned out just perfect. We did add some beef broth as there was not enough liquid from the meat. We would use this recipe again.
