Steps:
- Pre-Heat oven to 200 degrees Place roast in baking pan top/fat side down. One by one apply seasonings to bottom of roast in an even coat using order above. (keep salt and pepper to 1/3 the other amount of other spices for all sides). Turn roast on side and repeat, than other side and repeat. Last, evenly cover top of roast with spice mixture and pat loosely. Entire roast should be covered with an evenly coated rub. Place meat thermometer in thickest part of roast and place roast in center of oven. Slow cook at 200 degrees until desired serving temperature. (see meat thermometer) For medium rare roast beef use 135 degrees. Pork to 170 degrees. Normally roasts should be pulled from the oven 5 to 10 degrees before reaching temperature but when slow cooking at low temp bring roast to temp or two degrees below desired temp as there will not be much increase in core temp the 20 minutes time to let stand before slicing. Plan on cooking a 6 lb. roast for 2.5 hours at 200 degrees. Beef will cook faster than pork. Once meat temperature begins to rise set a timer for 30 minutes. When the timer goes off note how many degree increase in meat temp for that 30 minutes. That increase will tell you time until to reach your desired carving temperature. In the event you need to speed the cooking process increase heat depending on how much you need to speed. Recalculate after 30 minutes. When cooking at 350 degrees or more take out roast 10 degrees below desired time. Tent roast aluminium foil. Leave thermometer in meat to check to see internal temp. If temp appears to be rising to fast than remove foil. Roast will be perfect every time. Use drippings for flavorful gravy.
