Men'S Health Southwest Sloppy Joes - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 tablespoon vegetable oil
    1 medium red onion, diced
    1/2 cup celery, diced
    1 teaspoon ginger puree
    1 teaspoon minced jalapeno
    1 lb ground pork
    1/2 cup diced canned tomato
    1/2 cup barbecue sauce
    1 ounce jim bean whiskey
    1 tablespoon soy sauce
    1 1/2 tablespoons lime juice
    4 -6 sandwich buns
    8 -12 iceburg lettuce leaves
    4 -6 tablespoons guacamole
Preparation
    Heat a large saucepan over high heat. Add the oil and swirl to coat. Add the onions, celery, ginger, and jalapenos. Saute until soft, about 2 minutes.
    Add the pork and brown lightly.
    Add the tomatoes, barbecue sauce (I used Billy Bee), whiskey, soy sauce and lime juice. Bring to a simmer and cook stirring occasionally for 15-20 minutes or until mixture will mound sloppy-joe-style.
    Toast the rolls. On the bottom half, place a leaf of lettuce, then scoop on the pork mixture. Top with lettuce, guacamole, and the top half of the roll.
    Great with a pint of light beer.
