Instructions: Combine herbs, salt and pepper; rub over roast. Cover and refrigerate for several hours or overnight. Bake, uncovered, at 325 F for 1-1/2 hours.

Drain fat. Mix apples and onion with brown sugar; spoon around roast.

Continue to roast 1 hour or until internal temperature reaches 160-170 .

Transfer the roast, apples and onion to a serving platter and keep warm.

Skim excess fat from meat juices; pour into a heavy skillet (or leave in the roasting pan if it can be heated on stovetop). Add apple juice and syrup. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until liquid has been reduced by half, about 1 cup. Slice roast and serve with gravy.
