Pork Mimi's Way, Yucatan Style: Cochinita Pibil image

Provided by Aarón Sánchez

Categories     main-dish

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup fresh sour orange juice
1 tablespoon white vinegar
2 tablespoons achiote paste
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
3 pounds pork (use 2 thick shoulder steaks cut into large pieces with a few short ribs or pork butt)
Salt

Steps:

  • Prepare marinade with the orange juice, vinegar, achiote, garlic, and salt, to taste, and mix thoroughly. Rub the mixture into the meat and marinate at room temperature for 1 hour, or refrigerated, for at least 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
  • Line a roaster pan with heavy foil and arrange the marinated pork in it, covering the meat with the marinade. Cover pan with foil tightly and bake for 2 to 3 hours. Check often and turn pieces of meat in their own juices. Roasting times vary according to the toughness of the meat.
  • Chop meat into cubes and discard any fatty parts. Serve with a basket of freshly made corn tortillas.
