When we buy one of those monsters, we make two roasts and a few boneless
pork chops (I know you consider that an oxymoron, Sheldon).

In the past, I've cut a deep X deep into each end of the roast. Make a
stuffing with bread, chopped apples, apple juice, and some chopped nuts.
Cram this mixture into both ends of the roast, until it's full all the way
to the center.

I probably used some kind of seasoning, too, but I only did this once, a
few years ago, and I honestly can't recall. Would cinnamon work?
