Roasted Pork with Citrus Mojo Marinade image

Provided by Brian Boitano

Time 4h10m

Yield 14 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 Meyer lemons, juiced
2 limes, juiced
2 blood oranges, juiced
6 large garlic cloves, chopped
2 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon ground cumin
3/4 cup annatto oil reserved from Arroz Con Pollo Bites recipe
1 (15 to 20-pound) suckling pig
Special Equipment: 1 Caja China roasting box
1 (9 to 10-pound) picnic pork shoulder
1 batch citrus mojo marinade less 1 tablespoon salt

Steps:

  • Citrus Mojo:
  • Combine all of the mojo ingredients in a large bowl and whisk well.
  • Score the skin with a sharp knife and rub the pig inside and out with 3/4 of the mojo marinade. Reserve the remaining mojo to pour over the meat after it has been carved.
  • Cook the whole pig in the Caja China according to manufacturer's instructions.
  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Score the skin of the pork shoulder. Put it into a large bowl or baking dish and pour in 3/4 of the marinade, making sure to coat the entire piece of pork. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
  • Put the pork shoulder, skin side up, in a roasting pan fitted with a rack, Cover with foil and roast in the oven for 3 hours. After 3 hours remove the foil, turn the heat up to 425 degrees F and roast until the skin is brown and crispy, about 30 to 45 minutes. Make sure to check every 5 or 10 minutes to make sure the skin does not burn. Remove from oven to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes before carving. Carve the meat and arrange it on a serving platter. Pour the reserved marinade over the carved meat just before serving.

JUICY CUBAN MOJO PORK ROAST (CHEF MOVIE RECIPE)



Juicy Cuban Mojo Pork Roast (Chef Movie recipe) image

This is the Mojo Marinated Roast Pork from the John Favreau movie "Chef". The recipe was created by rock star LA chef Roy Choi. The flavours of the marinade are classic Cuban, citrusy and strong. It infuses into the pork incredibly well. I made this with boneless pork shoulder because I made it specifically with the intention of using leftovers to make Cubanos (Cuban sandwiches) and boneless is easier to slice. But it can also be made with bone-in pork (add 0.5kg/1lb to the pork weight). This roast is extremely tender though is still suited to carving rather than "pulling apart" with tongs - though I also provide the cook times for a pulled Cuban pork option!

Categories     Pork     Roast

Time 3h15m

Number Of Ingredients 15

3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 cup cilantro / coriander, (lightly packed)
1 tbsp orange zest
3/4 cup orange juice, (fresh)
1/2 cup lime juice
1/4 cup mint leaves, (lightly packed)
8 garlic cloves
1 tbsp fresh oregano leaves, (packed (or 1/2 tbsp dried oregano))
2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
4 lb / 2 kg pork shoulder / pork butt, (skinless and boneless (not loin or leg roast, will dry out))
2 tbsp lime juice
1/4 cup orange juice
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Combine Marinade ingredients in a food processor and blend until the herbs and garlic are finely chopped. Alternatively, you can finely chop/mince the garlic and herbs then mix all ingredients in a bowl.
  • Place in a large ziplock bag with the pork. Place in the fridge overnight (in a bowl, just to be safe).
  • Remove the pork from the Marinade and leave on counter for 1 hour (bring to room temp). Reserve the Marinade.
  • Preheat oven to 220°C/425°F (200°C fan).
  • Roast, uncovered, for 30 minutes. Base with pan juices.
  • Reduce heat to 190°C/375°F (170°C). Roast for another 1 1/2 - 2 hours, basting every half hour, until the internal temperature reaches 70°/160°F. At this temperature, the pork is cooked, still juicy, and carvable, as it is intended to be (Note 1)
  • Fall-apart tender alternative (not slicable, meat falls apart): Roast at 160°C/320°F (all oven types) for 3 1/2 hours, or until the meat can be easily shredded using 2 forks (check on side).
  • Remove from the oven and place on a plate, loosely covered with foil. Rest for 20 minutes before serving with the Mojo Sauce on the side. I decorated mine with pan fried slices of oranges and extra cilantro/coriander leaves.

Categories     Main Course

Time 2h30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon orange zest
3/4 cup fresh orange juice
1/2 cup fresh lime juice
1 cup cilantro (finely chopped)
1/4 cup lightly packed mint leaves (finely chopped)
8 garlic cloves (minced)
1 tablespoon minced oregano (2 teaspoons dried oregano)
2 teaspoons ground cumin
Kosher salt and pepper
3 & 1/2 pounds boneless pork shoulder (in one piece*)

Steps:

  • If you have a food processor: Add the orange juice, cilantro leaves, mint leaves, and smashed (not minced) garlic cloves, and pulse until everything is finely chopped. Add this mixture to a ziplock bag, along with the rest of the oil, zest, lime juice, oregano, and cumin.
  • If you don't have a food processor: In a large ziplock bag, combine olive oil, orange zest, orange juice, lime juice, chopped cilantro, chopped mint, minced garlic, oregano, and cumin. Shake it around a bit to mix it up, then add the pork shoulder.
  • Place the zipped up bag in a baking dish, and put it in the fridge overnight, or several hours at least.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Place a wire rack (I used a cooling rack) over a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Place the pork on the rack and discard the marinade. Salt and pepper the pork well.
  • Roast the pork for 30 minutes. It should be lightly browned.
  • Turn the oven down to 375 degrees F. Roast for another 1 hour and 20-30 minutes, or until a meat thermometer reads 160.
  • Transfer to a cutting board, cover with aluminum foil and let rest at least 20 minutes.
  • Carve against the grain and serve.

SLOW-ROASTED PORK WITH CITRUS AND GARLIC



Slow-Roasted Pork with Citrus and Garlic image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 2h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

10 cloves garlic
2 tablespoons fresh oregano
1 tablespoon fresh thyme
2 tablespoons coriander seeds
2 teaspoons cumin seeds
4 bay leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 6-to-8-pound Boston butt pork shoulder
Juice of 6 oranges, peels reserved
Juice of 4 lemons, peels reserved
Juice of 4 limes
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 white onions, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Pulse the garlic, oregano, thyme, coriander and cumin seeds, bay leaves, 2 tablespoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a food processor to make a thick paste. Trim off all but a thin layer of fat from the pork, then make deep slits all over the roast (about every 2 inches) with a paring knife. Rub the spice paste over the pork and into the slits.
  • Mix the citrus juices, Worcestershire sauce and olive oil in a large glass bowl. Submerge the pork in the marinade and top with the onions and reserved orange and lemon peels. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 8 hours or up to 2 days. Bring to room temperature 1 hour before roasting.
  • Preheat the oven to 450. Remove the citrus peels from the bowl and refrigerate. Place the pork on a rack in a large roasting pan (reserve the marinade and onions); roast, uncovered, about 1 hour. Add the marinade to the pan and pile the onions on top of the meat. Cover with foil, lower the oven temperature to 350 and roast 2 more hours. Uncover, place the citrus peels around the pork and continue to roast, basting occasionally, until the meat browns and a thermometer inserted into the bottom half registers 190, 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours.
  • Transfer the pork to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes. Meanwhile, skim any excess fat from the pan juices. Slice the pork and serve with the onion and pan juices. Garnish with citrus peels.

Provided by J. Kenji López-Alt

Categories     Mains

Time 8h30m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 15

For the Mojo:
8 medium garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons (8g) ground cumin
2 teaspoons (8g) freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup (about 1 small handful) minced fresh oregano leaves
1/2 cup (120ml) fresh juice from 1 to 2 oranges (see Note)
1/4 cup (60ml) fresh juice from 3 to 4 limes (see Note)
1/4 cup (60ml) extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt
For the Pork and to Finish:
1 (6-8 pound; 3-3.5kg) boneless pork shoulder roast, rind removed
1/4 cup (about 1 small handful) finely chopped fresh mint leaves
3 tablespoons (about 3 very large pinches) finely chopped fresh oregano leaves
Lime wedges, for serving
Steamed rice, black beans , and maduros , for serving

Steps:

  • For the Mojo: Combine garlic, cumin, pepper, oregano, orange juice, lime juice, and olive oil in a large bowl and whisk. Season to taste generously with salt. Transfer half of mojo to a sealed container and reserve in refrigerator. Add pork to remaining mojo and turn to coat. If desired, transfer pork and marinade to a gallon-sized zipper-lock bag and refrigerate 2 hours or up to overnight before continuing.
  • For the Pork and to Finish: Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and preheat oven to 275°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with a double layer of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Place pork and juices on top and fold up foil, crimping to seal loosely but making sure that there is room for air to circulate inside. Place in oven and roast for 3 hours. Fold back foil, increase oven temperature to 325°F, and continue roasting, basting pork with pan juices occasionally, until pork shows almost no resistance when a metal skewer or knife is inserted into it and the surface is crackly and brown, 2 to 3 hours longer. Remove pork from oven and let rest 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Pour accumulated pork juices into a bowl and discard all except 1 cup. Add reserved mojo to pork drippings, along with fresh chopped mint and oregano. Whisk together and season to taste with salt.
  • Serve shredded pork, passing mint mojo and lime wedges on the side. Serve rice, beans, and plantains on the side. Reserve any leftovers for sandwiches.
