Prep instructions

  1. Cut pork in big chunks. Smaller pieces make it easier tenderize. Easier in this case means it will take less time to cook. Place chunks in a bowl.
  2. Season pork in salt and pepper. Use a liberal amount to cover the surface of each chunk.
  3. Squeeze the juices from fruit in the same container the pork is in. Ensure that the seeds are removed since when cooked will become bitter. It won't affect the dish taste wise but you don't want to be blindsided by sudden bitterness.
  4. Mince garlic add to the pot.
  5. Marinate overnight.
