Note
This recipe works well with pork roast as listed, but can be adapted for beef. The longer the meat sits in the spiced liquid, the more flavorful it becomes. For best results, refrigerate overnight before slicing. You can reheat the roast gently in the cooking liquid or serve it cold as a sandwich filling.
