Occasionally I like to do something really over the top in the kitchen just for the sheer fun of it.
Today I made Cuban pork
Make a marinade out of Orange Juice, Olive Oil, White Vinegar, Garlic, Cumin, Oregano, Salt and Pepper and smear it all over a pork shoulder and let it sit for 2 hours.
Make sure you put 1 inch slits all over the pork so that the marinade can penetrate.
Then roast in a slow oven for 6 hours, and then let rest for another hour before you can eat and enjoy.
I'm serving this with Black Beans that have simmered with a Ham Hock and various herbs and spices for 2 hours and also some rice.
The leftover pork will become Empanadas on Saturday and reappear with pasta on Sunday!!!!

the post-lenten meat binge continues
With all the hoopla over balsamic, there is really no replacing white vinegar in most recipes.
