Preparation

Prepare Jerk Pork and Sweet Potatoes: In large bowl, toss sweet potatoes with oil and 1/2 t. jerk seasoning until evenly coated. Arrange potatoes around edges of prepared pan in single layer, leaving space in center to add pork later. Roast potatoes for 5 minutes. On wax paper, rub pork with remaining jerk seasoning to coat. Place pork in center of pan. Roast pork and potatoes 15-18 minutes or until meat thermometer inserted in center of pork reaches 155 degrees (Internal temperature will rise to 160 degrees upon standing).
Meanwhile, prepare pineapple-lime slaw: From limes, grate 1 1/2 teaspoons peel and squeeze 2 tablespoons juice. In bowl, combine lime peel and juice, cabbage mix, pineapple, and 1/2 t. salt; toss to combine.
When pork is done, transfer to cutting board. Slice pork and serve with potatoes and slaw.
