• For added flavor, consider adding herbs and spices to the rub before baking.
• Let the roast rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
• For a sweeter version of this recipe, use brown sugar instead of white sugar.
• To add some crunchiness, mix in some chopped walnuts or almonds into the batter before baking.
• For a more unique flavor, try adding some orange peel or dried cranberries to the batter.
