Direcciones
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Combine all the ingredients except the pork shoulder in a food processor and mix for 2 min, till well combined.
- Place the pork shoulder in a large sufficient bag to hold it, then add in the marinade and close the bag with a twist tie. Wrap it in another bag. Transfer the pork to a bowl large sufficient to hold the bag and marinate it in the fridge for 2 days, turning the bag occasionally to make sure the marinade covers the pork.
- When you are ready to cook, preheat the oven and remove the pork from the bag. Transfer it to a roasting pan, fat side up, add in 3 c. of water and pour the marinade on top of pork. Cover it with foil and cook for 1 1/2 hrs then turn the pork fat-side down and cook for another 1 1/2 hrs or possibly till the meat is almost falling of the bone.
- Increase the oven temperature to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and throw away the foil. Cook the pork for a further 1/2 hour fat side up till brown.
- Remove the pork from the oven and let it sit for a few min. Test it with a meat thermometer in thickest part of pork, not touching bone, till the temperature reads170 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Set the pork aside to cold, then pull the meat from the bone with your fingers.
- For the Mojito:Mix together all the ingredients for the mojito. Then, heat 3 Tbsp. of peanut oil in a frying pan and add in 4 c. of pulled pork pcs and fry a few min till crisp on edges. Add in 1/2 a c. of the mojito and cook for a few min till the liquid has evaporated, season with minced cilantro salt and pepper and serve on a bed of salad with lowfat sour cream.
