1538.0. "PORK: Glaze for Fresh Pork" by WMOIS::S_LECLAIR () Fri Dec 02 1988 09:30

    Jeff Smith, The Frugal Gourmet gave this recipe for basting fresh
    roast of pork.  I tried it at Thanksgiving and it is the best glaze
    I've ever tasted.
                 
    1 can of cranberries
    1/2 cup orange juice
    1 medium onion (diced in small pieces)
    1 tsp. cinnamon
    1 tsp. ginger
    
    Cook mixture in saucepan until onion is soft.  I did a boneless
    roast of port on a rotiserie (sp) and basted with the glaze every
    15 to 20 minutes.  The pork comes to the table with sort of a candied
    glaze on it.  Delicious!!!!!

1538.1Can of cranberries?USMFG::PJEFFRIESthe best is betterFri Dec 02 1988 09:533
    
    Is the can of cranberries, cranberry sauce? I have never seen canned
    cranberries.

    Frug was using the whole-berry cranberry sauce, not that pureed
    stuff.
1538.3not worth itSALEM::MEDVECKYMon Dec 12 1988 13:2012
    I did a three pound boneless pork roast this weekend specifically
    to try this sauce.
    
    Put the roast on a rack in a glass pan and basted every 10-15 minutes.
    Had to add water to the bottom of the pan as the glaze started to
    burn...
    
    Was really disappointed with the results.....this sounded great
    when he did it on the show but Ill never try it again.... from now on
    its just lots of pepper, served with appleaauce....

    I didn't use canned cranberry sauce.  I always make cranberry sauce
    anyway so I used the homemade stuff.
    
    I don't think cooking this in a glass pan is a good idea.  I think
    the best way is to do the port on a rotiserie.  It certainly worked
    for me.  There was no sticking to deal with, etc.  The outside of
    the port was candied and the inside was juicy and tender.  Excellent!

    Sorry about the spelling - that should have been pork; not port.
    
    Guess I'm just getting into the Christmas spirit!
