Since I trust TikTok marketplace about the same as I do my high school friends that failed science and now give medical advice; I searched desertcart for a real option. I decided to buy this little gem and try it. I decided to test it on a cheap piece of pork loin I got on BOGO from my local Publix (FL!). I cut up 1.5 sweet onions, diced the 2lb loin into manageable sizes, 1/2 the container, and about 1.5 cups of water (could've done 2). Placed the crock pot on "set it and forget it" for 5 hours. He's my review: Smell/Look 5/5 The sauce looked potent and flavorful right out of the plastic jar. The robust color told me this was made by a 65yr old nana from Mexico. After about 2 hours, I couldn't stand it and had to do a full sniff test 👃 ... I wish this was a cologne. Taste 5/5* Wait ... What was that? That wasn't supposed to be so sweet and flavorful. I'm assuming I put to many sweet onions in the batch because the taste was sweet and delicious (not what I was expecting). I thought someone tampered with the sauce but then I remembered the crap-ton of onions I added which might have adjusted the DNA. I went ahead and added oil to a hot pan, dipped my soft shell in the heavenly juices, added some meat, fresh ground white sharp cheese, waited a minute, folded, and patiently awaited greatness. I did this 3x and then created a consume bowl to dip my prizes in. WHOLLY F***BALLS BATMAN ... Delicious 😋. Value ??/?? Who cares! I ran straight to these comments like a paparazzi with a secret so I could share the "tea". Damn this was good. Then I placed an order for 3 more jars. Summary: This was so damn simple and flavorful that I can't wait to try this on a real roast. What did I learn? 1/2 jar + 2 cups of water for 2lbs of meat. Add more water if you want more drip. Add celantro and raw onions for texture. Add a splash of Sriracha, less onion to reduce sweetness and add a kick.
