Method
Beat together the ingredients for (one) marinade in a small bowl until combined.
Mix marinade with pork in a ziplock freezer bag, and toss until the pork is evenly coated in the marinade. Carefully press out any extra air that might be in the bag, then seal. (You will need 1/2 cup marinade per 1 pound of pork.)
If Using Immediately: Refrigerate the pork pack(s) for anywhere from 30 minutes to up to 1 day.
If Freezing: Immediately move the pork pack(s) to the freezer, and freeze for up to 3 months. Then when you're ready to cook the pork, move the pork pack back to the refrigerator for 24 hours, or until it has thawed completely. Or to speed up the process, you can submerge the sealed pork pack in a bowl of cold water in the refrigerator until it has thawed completely.
When ready to cook, remove the pork from the marinade, discard the remaining marinade, and cook however you prefer. (See recommendations below.)
