Oh, that was goooooooood.... ::dopey grin::

It was spicey in a lip smacking good way. The part that got most of the brown sugar was of course the best, so more of that next time. It was incredibly juicey and tender, I was ecstatic abou that. There's nothing worse than dry tough pork, which unfortunately is incredibly easy to do.

The bacon did get lost... The veggies were kind of overpowered by all the rub that dissolved into the broth. It was tasety, but.... I'm not sure what to add or lessen. Maybe lessen some of the pepper, add some sugar. Maybe roast the veggies separate. hmmm...

Overall, I was very pleased with it though. Nom nom nom!

This reminds me of my favorite pork recipe, roast pork tenderloin with cumin, from the New York Times Cookbook. There is a glazing step too. Mmmmm.

do you have the recipe? I love trying new ones, especially at recommendation. Tito really likes pork, and I don't so much. A good recipe is important to make me really want to eat it, rather than "cut it up and push it around the plate, and decreetly feed it to the dog," which is what I reportedly do with things I don't like. ;p

I forgot to list an ingredient: the 1/2 cup chicken stock that you whisk up the brown bits with and leave in the pan for the last third of cook time.
