This recipie was all it said. Very moist & tasty. I was wondering if there isn't a cajun seasoning that you could purchase thought rather than doing your own. I had plenty left over though & bagged it for another time. Don't overcook! Delicious!

Stupendous!! LOVED this rub! . Seemed like a lot of rub but I used it all and it was not overwhelming. Definitely wakes up the taste buds in a delicious way. .

This has a fabulous taste, not to spicy (as in hot) and not over powering from the garlic powder. We really enjoyed this tonight at dinner. The seasoning mixture makes enough for two roasts but I just rubbed mine on very thick. Thanks so much for a winning recipe here.
