Portuguese Pork Roast

This recipe is all about the marinade. Instructions are given for oven, crockpot, and instant pot. The marinade can be thickened to use as gravy as well. This comes out so moist though that gravy isn't needed, it's just there for more flavor. Here this roast is pictured with Potato Love Letters
