Absolutely delicious! I used the pineapple juice and the pork was sweet and spicy and fantastic. Served with flour tortillas, salsa, sour cream and lettuce and enjoyed a wonderful flavorful meal - thanks for sharing the recipe!

<p>I love cooking and trying different foods, but my favorite cookbooks are now Weight Watchers or low fat/low cal cookbooks as I tend to try and make low fat/low cal recipes. I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
