Cuban Pork Roast Sandwich
Recipe attempting to recreate a recently closed sandwich shop in seattle. I merged a few recipes i found online. I use a traeger pellet grill for slow cooking the pork, but i suppose you can use any slow cooking technique.
Steps
Prepare pork for slow cooking :.
Combine marinade ingredients.
Stab the pork all over to allow for better marinade penetration.
Marinade pork for 12-24 hours.
Remove from marinade and bring to room temperature.
Heat large skillet with a small amount of olive oil until smoking hot.
Sear pork on all sides in skillet.
Leave the pan alone and keep it for cooking onions later.
Place pork in roasting pan , and pour marinade into pan.
Loosely tent pan with foil.
Slow cook pork :.
Place in 300 degree oven.
Cook for 2 hours tented.
Reduce heat to 250.
Cook for 1 more hour uncovered , basting every 20 minutes with marinade.
Turn pork over and cook for 1 more hour , basting every 20 minutes with marinade.
Your cooking time will vary depending on meat and pan size.
Uncovering the pan is done to reduce the marinade.
Your goal is to use most of the marinade but not to burn it.
You will still have considerable burnt and caramelized pieces at the end of the cooking cycle.
Re-cove.
