    In a small bowl, combine the dry brine ingredients; stir to blend. Pat dry roast with paper towel and apply salt mixture all over the meat. Place roast on a wire rack sitting on a plate, wrap with cling film and transfer to the refrigerator for 15 hours.

    The next day, take roast out and let the meat come back to room temperature; about 1 ½ to 2 hours. When ready to cook, preheat oven to 350ºF, make a few incisions and insert pieces of garlic. Rub dry mustard over the meat and sprinkle with hot paprika; season with freshly ground black pepper.

Cook roast 25 minutes per pound or until internal temperature reads 145ºF. Remove from oven and transfer onto a cutting board. Wrap loosely with foil and let it rest for 15 minutes before slicing.
