Cuban Roast Pork Recipe

When done right, cuban roast pork is succulent and sweet. It goes perfectly with a side of cuban rice and beans or some plantains. The pork is marinated in a delicious sauce called mojo that is both sour and sweet. The recipe is very simple, but is loaded with flavor. Marinating takes some time, but its otherwise an easy and manageable dish to throw together on a weeknight. Get the pork started the night before, then pop it in the oven when you get home from work. The whole house will smell amazing and you can cook the rice and beans in the time it takes to bake. Use the leftover pork along with some sliced ham, pickles, and swiss cheese to make a medianoche or cubano sandwich. They are both delicious pressed sandwiches that will satisfy an afternoon or late night craving.
