Duoh! I missed the first ingredient - the smoked pork loin. Smoking and brining are the two most important parts, and several german loin recipies include cloves, brown sugar, etc. My butcher usually gives it to me with center cut, bone in loin chops...<br/><br/>Ok. I have to try it this way. MY bad with apologies....
