I was working nights for the Christmas holiday and thought I would try this one. I changed several things about the recipe. The pomagrantes here didn't look so (going out of season) good so I used juice. I also put every thing in the crock pot and cooked it on low for 10 hours. Oh my goodness was it good and tender and my picky family truely enjoyed it.
I made this for a backyard party and everyone loved it. I usually make my own changes but this time I did it as written. What a great flavor for pork! Not one bite legt even though I also cooked 15 New York steaks as well!
Okay so I had a few problems with this. First off I wasn't too happy with the pomegranate flavor. If you do what the recipe says and do the pomegranate sauce yourself it is a lot of work for a little bit of flavor. Secondly I'm not sure if i liked the choice of cut for the pork. Yes it was VERY tender but it for me personally id prefer something boneless and with less fat. Would I make this in the future? yes probably. But i would probably use boneless pork loin and use pomegranate juice instead.
The first time I made this it was a hit at the corporate potluck. Last time I got good reviews at my family party. The sauce reminds me of a sweet and spicy (cinnamon) teriyake sauce.
This was pretty good. I think it was the way I cooked it that left it lacking. I cooked it in my crock pot and I used Pomegranate juice cocktail. I should have used straight Pomegranate juice maybe it would have tasted better. I will try this again to see if I have more success.
Absolutely loved this dish! It was wonderful! Used POM pomegranate juice which makes things a lot less messy. Was a big hit!
Easy enough and love the flavor of the glaze. I added a little rosemary to the garlic and seasonings and mixed it all with a little oil then cut slits in the roast packing them with the mixture. Substituted apple cider vinegar and honey in the glaze. Smelled great in the oven and tasted great too.
Easy looks great but for my roast the flavor of the pomegranate did not really sink in very far. Still tasty but I whish more of the pomegranate taste got further in the roast.
I don't normally care for pork until I tried this recipe. Cant wait to try it with the pork grilled. POM pomegranate juice shortens the prep time. & I used brown sugar. YUMMY!
