My friend Betty sent me this recipe just after football season officially got underway. It was a tailgating Sunday dish that she was able to use two ways. First she did Cuban pork sandwiches and then with the leftover pork she made wet burritos with beans and rice. (see later post)I think it's a great idea and budget stretcher. I've been wanting to try this, but haven't found a pork butt on sale since she gave me this idea. It's just too good not to go ahead and share.
Cuban Pulled Pork
1/2 t. fresh ground pepper
1 t. salt
2 t. ground cumin
1 t. dried oregano
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/3 cup olive oil
1/3 cup orange juice
3 T. lemon juice
3 T. lime juice
chicken broth
Pork shoulder roast or 1 pkg country style ribs
Mix together in plastic ziplock bag. Add roast or country style ribs. Marinate for 12-24 hours. Place meat in heavy pot with tight lid. Add enough chicken broth to come up at least half way on meat. Simmer, turning occasionally, until very tender and it easily falls apart, about 2-3 hours. Shred meat, removing visible fat, then place back in broth and set aside until cool enough to handle (this will keep meat moist while it cools)
