We LOVED, LOVED, LOVED this!!!! I added a few sliced garlic cloves but followed the rest as stated. Served this over wheat rotini with a side of "Sherry Cherry Tomatoes" from this site and it was unbelievable! Kitten does it again! The sweet, delicious flavor of this was unbelievable and the pork was so moist! I used pork tenderloin rather than a pork shoulder. PERFECT!
