Lechon asado con mojo(roast pork w/sour orange/garlic sau

1 roast

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 cups Sour orange juice (half sweet orange/half lemon juices will suffice)
Pork roast
10 Garlic cloves, crushed
2 teaspoons Oregano

Directions

MOJO MARINADE AND SAUCE

PORK

Use half the mojo to marinate your pork roast, piercing the meat first and placing it in a zip-lock bag overnight in the refrigerator.

Drain the marinade and roast at 325 degrees using a meat thermometer.

Use the remainder of the mojo for a table sauce.

Traditionally, Cubans eat boiled yucca, a kind of root tasting like potato. It is dressed with mojo also. We also eat black beans and rice and a green salad to complete our Christmas meal. Enjoy.
