Spicy Honey Mustard Pork Roast


Recipe Description
You can make this less spicy by adding less pepper (that's how I made it since no one really likes spicy foods here). I used a LOT less and only used about 1 tsp. of coarse black pepper.
I also added about 1 T. more honey.
This was a big hit here. The pork was juicy and tender.
