Caribbean citrus pork

"This dish has incredible flavor from the combination of orange, rum and chili pepper. Serving this over rice is optional but the rice IS a great base for the sauce. Fried plantain goes well with this meal."

  1. I think this recipe is supburb. Iused dark rum which here in Australia is our Bundaberg Rum and it goes so well with anything citrus. I actually halved the recipe which worked out fine. Other than that I followed the recipe fully and there is nothing I can think to do that would actually improve this recipe. It is something I will do again and again.
     
  2. We had my son over for dinner and served this dish he went on forever how the citrus, spices and flavors come together to create a wonderful and delightful dish. Not only to eat but easy to make. By the wat some son is a Professional Cook in an exclusive private country club. My wife and myself also enjoyed it very much. Thank you. Chef Shakie
     
  3. This recipe is great! I altered it somewhat though. I used the ingredients you listed and turned them into a marinade. I them marinated the pork for a few hours, then grilled it along with some oranges. Fabulous! Thanks for the ideas!
