This was so good and every one loved it. I made it for Chinese New Year. I cooked it the night before in crock pot so favors could marry. My husband tasted it and said "I have to wait until tomorrow to eat more!" I separated sauce and pork and put in frig. The next day close to party. I covered pork with aluminum foil and reheated pork in oven, then turned oven up and poured sauce over pork. (I thickened sauce in sauce pan on stove with corn starch) The heat helped to carmelize that yummy sauce. Then I put it back in crock pot for guests to enjoy. I followed recipe. The only change I made was to use agave in place of honey. Served with jasmine rice! Enjoy this simple recipe!

Exceptionally delicious! I skipped marinading this, and did sear the meat prior to slow cooking, but otherwise followed the recipe. Used a 4 pound boneless pork rib roast, and served with steamed vegetables and kamut. As others suggested, I did thicken the liquid with cornstarch before serving, which gave us a very nice sauce. Thank you! We will definitely make again soon.

Oh my word!! This is one of those recipes that needs to be discovered! Amazing results. I originally made this recipe to serve with Lo Mien noodles. Then something came up and I had to think quick for a quick meal, so I decided to make fajitas. Sauteed some onions and peppers and quick it was :) They were the BEST fajitas I've ever had. Every one should try this recipe!
