INDONESIAN-STYLE PORK ROAST
Your family and friends won't believe you when you reveal the "secret ingredients" for this flavorful pork roast-peanut butter! I've served this roast to guests for years, and I can't tell you how many times I've sent copies of the recipe home with guests. For a change of taste, you can substitute toasted walnuts for peanuts and use walnut oil instead of peanut butter.

This is absolutely a wonderful, lazy Sunday afternoon recipe. The peanut sauce is to die for, you could use it for satays, etc. I order the shoulder roast from my butcher when we need (crave) this meal. Prep time does not include marinading time.
