Portuguese style roasted dinner.
If one was to do this on the islands, it would be done in a crock type cooking pot. Here, I do it in a big roasting pan, like used for Turkey.

Place all ingredients in roaster.

5 lbs of pork. Usually shoulder, “Boston butt” and or sirloin.
1 or 2 linguica cut into quarters, poke the pieces with a fork a few times
2 to 4 chourico cut in half, then poke with fork.
4 white onions, quartered
4 heads Garlic, cloves peeled, whole.
6 to 8 carrots, cut in half or thirds depending on size.
6 to 8 ribs celery, cut same as carrots.
4 to 6 large russet potatoes, half or quarter
4 to 6 red skin potatoes, cut in half.

Green cabbage is optional. Quarter and put on top.

Seasoning. Salt, pepper, coriander, cumin. Mustard seeds. Oregano, safflower, bay leaf. Mix all this in a small dish then spread over top (before cabbage)

Add about two cups white wine. normally we use vinho verde, just a young white.

put lid on roaster, place in center of oven at 325 for 45 min to 1 hour. Turn down heat to 300, continue cooking til all the potatoes and veggies are done. Maybe 2 hours,

When it comes out of the oven, let stand for 15 minutes, then sort all the ingredients to bowls and platters. Strain the liquid out of the bottom of the pan. Use to pour over everything.

Slice up pork load plate and eat.

U guys ever been on us50 utah to nevada?? Man what a drive !! Some crazy little mountain ranges all thru there .

About halfway between US50 and Wendover on Utah HYW 1 is a place called Ibapah... I loaded cattle there several years ago. There is a small monument that tells of the Pony Express station that was once there. It was pretty cool. The monument sits about where the point of the pin is located in the following screen shot.

Here are pics of the monument.

It amazes me how several speed demons always pass me several times, and then somehow get to the truck stop after me.

Guess fuel is no expense to them. I find it to be a big expense, but that's just me.

CR England explained it as that driving fast burns a person out. That as a driver it is better to go the speed of the traffic. Then you wonnt be fighting the traffic.
