Spit Roasted Pork

[Marlene]

I'm entertaining yet again this weekend, and because it's nice, we'll likely spit roast our pork roast instead of roasting it in the oven. I'm looking for a nice sauce to go with it, that can be made ahead of time and not fussed with too much at dinner. I'll like also serve a Potato Puff and a Tomato/Onion salad with a balsamic vinigrette dressing.

Ideas?

There was a previous thread on a sauce that went well with pork tenderloin:

I haven't tried it but they seemed to like it.

Edited to add there was another similar thread here.

I like a sweetish sauce with roasted pork. A tamarind based BBQ sauce is always nice. Or maybe a sweet and spicy ancho/pasilla sauce. Just a thought...

What comes to mind is a nice juice to drizzle over the slices before serving...

A kinda Greek thing...

A liquid made with roast drippings, olive oil, oregano, fresh ground black pepper, lemon and minced garlic...

That's livin' baby!

If you take a light brown roux, add a bottle of hard cider, chicken broth, a little sage and S & P and you have a fantastic gravy

Since we'll be spit roasting, I'm not sure what the drippings will be like. I could make a warm mustard sauce, but since I'm serving French Onion Soup first, I'd rather not have to get up and make a sauce.
