Grrrrrgh!

From: HungryMonster.com
Serves: 4
 

Ingredients:

4 pound pork loin roast -- (you can also use a pork shoulder roast)
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper -- freshly ground
1 cup milk to cover roast -- see instructions

Turn the heat down to medium and cook for 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours, until the sauce has reduced to thick, nut-brown clusters. If the sauce has not reduced after 2 1/2 hours, remove the meat, keep it warm, and increase the heat to high until the sauce thickens. Remove the roast from the sauce, if you haven't already. Turn the heat down and skim the fat from the sauce. Add the water, turn the heat to high, and scrape the bottom of the saucepan (there will be a crust on the bottom that you'll want to get loose). Return the meat to the pan, warm it up, and serve it with the sauce. The cleanup for this recipe takes a while, because the saucepan gets a crust on the bot
