The other white meat

My Husband loves pork. I'm pretty sure I made it every possible way from every recipe I have ever seen. I personally get tired of eating the same thing over and over. I always try to change stuff up and never cook the same thing twice in two months. The only recipes i will ever repeat are ones I love. This one is a new addition to my experiment box and we both really enjoyed it.

Its got the right amount of tang from the ginger, the perfect amount of spice and great sweet flavors from the fruits.

As you know it is the day after Memorial day. I am beat. ***insert cute and witty post about my life here***
