Barbecue Roast Pork With Fruity Sweet and Sour Sauce image

This dish is so easy to make.The fruity sauce would go well with chicken or fish too. I made the pork and coated cooked baby potatoes in the juices, lovely. I've made this sauce twice now and everyone loves it. I'm going to try it with bananas too, I've made it with and without the apple and it's just as good.
