OP mentioned recipes.

If you like Mexican/Latin flavors.  I rather enjoy things marinated in Bitter Orange(Goya name: Naranja) and Achiote(available online)  Its earthy and fragrant, especially if you wrap it in a banana leaf.

Should a student athlete attend a tailgate? Bitter Orange is a BANNED NCAA substance.  Its pretty good, though. (You can use oj, grapefruit, lime, if you must)   Don't marinate the pork for over 24 hours. The acidity will break it down, too much.

Bitter Orange is really good for Cuban Rice/Pork/Beans.  Don't let the low cost of this meal fool you.  Its ridiculous.  Marinated pork butt, smoked.  Cut off serving size chunks, and lightly brown the non smoked edges in a cast iron skillet.  Rice with a TON of lime, beans with a TON of lime and Garlic.  Topped with fresh slaw(cabbage, touch of honey, lime, and potato sticks) Drizzled with Garlic Crema(sour cream, cream, garlic, lime, salt)  And your favorite hot sauce.  I highly recommend Barron's West Indian hot sauce.  Scotch Bonnets/mustard based.  Lots of cilantro.

This is one of the few meals that will completely silence my over talkative family, that can eat more than you can imagine.   Like anything, if you take the time, even "lowly" pork rice and beans can be fantastic.
