The garlic puree/marinade has some good flavors; we actually let it sit overnight and that seems like a good choice. I was pleasantly surprised that the temperature and cook time did not dry out the pork or burn the greens. Unfortunately, the water that's keeping things moist also seemed to keep them from browning.

I'd tinker with it some more; the pork did come out nicely. But it was underwhelming.
