Brazilian Pork Roast

2 pound pork roast
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 bay leaf, crushed
2 cloves
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3 tablespoons lime juice
3 tablespoons orange juice

3/4 cup orange juice, no pulp
2 tablespoons fresh ginger puree
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves

1. Whisk together the top ingredients, except the pork, and marinade the pork in this overnight.
2. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
3. Remove pork roast from marinade and place in a roaster just a bit larger than it.
4. Place the orange juice, ginger, brown sugar and cloves in a small saucepan over high heat and bring to a boil.
5. Reduce orange juice mixture to a syrup, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, and use this to baste the pork roast.
6. Place the pork in the oven and roast until the internal temperature is about 160 degrees, about 75-80 minutes, basting every half hour or so.
7. Allow pork to rest for 20 minutes before cutting and serve with warmed tortillas and salsa or citrus.
