This was really good. I added 2 small fresh Thai red chilis and 1/4 cup apple juice to the rest of the ingredients and blended it all together (except the roast!) in my food processor. Jabbed holes all over the roast and let it marinade overnight, then roasted it in our rotisserie grill. I think next time I'd use less mustard and maybe add a tablespoon of apricot or pineapple preserves as it felt like it was missing just a little something. I'm not providing a rating, though, since maybe it was my own tinkering that did it! :)
