Pork roast was once the most affordable meat for people on a budget. They used to be large, and one would feed two people for a week. Recently, I've seen a few that would be lucky to get three single servings off of one. Thaw and cook times may have to be adjusted based on the quality and thickness of the meat. A pork roast can taste very similar to a beef roast. Pork roast can be one of several different cuts, and each taste about the same. They shrink more than a beef roast. Vegetables soak the juice up.
