6 tablespoons Sherry vinegar
6 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons golden brown sugar
3 tablespoons sugar
15 whole black peppercorns

1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/3 cup (or more) beef broth
1/4 cup sour orange juice or lime juice
1 5 1/2-pound bone-in pork loin roast

Preparation

  1. For pickled caramelized guavas:

    Step 1

    Bring all ingredients to boil in heavy large saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer until almost all liquid evaporates, stirring often, about 30 minutes.(Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover; chill.) Serve warm or at room temperature.

  2. For pork:

    Step 2

    Place first 5 ingredients in mortar; mash into paste with pestle. Stir in 1/3 cup broth and juice. Transfer marinade to large resealable plastic bag. Add pork and seal. Refrigerate 12 to 14 hours, turning occasionally.

    Step 3

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Transfer pork and marinade to large roasting pan. Roast until thermometer inserted into center registers 145°F, basting occasionally with pan juices and adding more broth by 1/4 cupfuls if dry, about 1 hour 45 minutes.

    Step 4

    Transfer pork to platter; let stand 20 minutes before serving. Slice pork and serve with juices and guavas alongside.
