This is delicious!  I’m not usually a pork fan as I find it too fatty.  This is a great cut and fabulous flavours with minimal fat.  With coleslaw on a brioche bun it is an easy, delectable dinner.  Great for a large, relaxed get together and so easy.  I always get great comments when I make this.  Thanks!

Excellent recipe. The meat was tender and juicy. Simple to make, as there is minimal prep. Definitely making it again.
