Directions

1
Place the pork roast in a shallow glass or plastic dish large enough to hold the meat.
2
In a small bowl, whisk together the ground red chiles, lime juice, 1 teaspoon salt, cumin, oregano, pepper, crushed garlic, and 1/4 cup of the thawed orange juice concentrate.
3
Brush the marinade mixture evenly over the entire surface of the pork roast.
4
Cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or up to 24 hours, turning the roast once if possible.
5
Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C).
6
Remove the pork from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.
7
Place a rack in a shallow roasting pan and set the pork on the rack, fat side up.
8
Insert a meat thermometer into the center of the thickest part of the roast, ensuring the tip does not touch bone or rest in fat.
9
Roast uncovered in the preheated oven until the internal temperature reaches 170°F (77°C), approximately 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
10
Remove the roasting pan from the oven and transfer the pork and rack to a warm platter.
11
Tent the pork loosely with foil and let it rest for 15 minutes before slicing.
12
While the pork rests, pour the roasting pan drippings through a fine-mesh sieve into a small saucepan, discarding the solids.
13
Add enough water to the remaining orange juice concentrate to make 3/4 cup of liquid, then stir this mixture and the dry white wine into the strained drippings.
14
Simmer the sauce over medium heat for 2-3 minutes to combine flavors and slightly reduce.
15
Remove the saucepan from heat and gently stir in the sour cream and 1/2 teaspoon salt until smooth.
16
Slice the rested pork roast and serve with the orange-wine sauce poured over or on the side.
