This was the most amazing pork I have ever tasted. Or my husband. Or my kids. Or my roommates. We all loved it, and you cannot imagine how unusual that is, and therefore how great this recipe is. I tried hard at 2 different stores, but I was unable to find Piri Piri, so I used Tabasco. I was prepared for something spicy that the kids wouldn't be able to eat. I was so wrong. The flavor of the sauce and pork was a mellowed yumminess that is impossible to describe. The ONLY thing I would change about this recipe would be to add cooked rice, to soak up some of that lovely liquid. I used pork loin, as my grocery store had no pork butt, and half bacon grease and half butter instead of lard (I had both, and didn't want to buy a pound of lard for a few tablespoons). I will be making this again for sure after the Tour. Made for ZWT5, for the Groovy GastroGnomes.

Yikes!! My daughter had fun in PaintShop Pro!! What she can do with a picture.
My husband and I live in the "bush" and hour from the closest town. Life here is quiet, yet so much more busy than when we lived in the "city". We grow our own veggies, several kinds of berries, and grow lots of hard neck organic garlic. We have 60 chickens, 4 dogs, 1 cat, 1 bird. Quite the menagerie.
I make all my own breads, and sell them (along with the eggs). I have a group of friends whom I make extra goodies for.
