Pork Ribs And Roast With Mojo Recipes

Steps:

• Combine 4 cups of the orange juice and 1 cup of the lime juice and zest in a large saucepan over high heat and reduce to 2 cups. Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining orange juice and lime juice add a few cloves of garlic and 1/4 cup of the oregano. Let cool to room temperature.
• Using a paring knife, make small slits over the entire surface of the pork and rub the garlic into the slashes. Whisk together the oil and remaining 1/4 cup of the oregano in a large roasting pan, add the pork and turn to coat, cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours and up to 24 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Remove the pork from the refrigerator 30 minutes before roasting. Season the pork with salt and pepper and cook for 30 minutes. Reduce the heat to 375 degrees F and continue roasting, basting with the marinade during the last 30 minutes of roasting until golden brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reaches 150 degrees F. Remove from the oven, baste with any remaining glaze, tent loosely and let rest 15 minutes before slicing.
• Serve the pork with the Mojo Dipping Sauce and the Plantains with Rum and Brown Sugar.
• Using a mortar and pestle, mash the garlic, serrano, cilantro and a few pinches of salt until it becomes a paste. Add the orange juice, lime juice and oil and stir to combine.
• Heat butter in a large saute pan over high heat. Add the sugar and cook until melted. Add the plantains and cook until soft and heated through. Remove pan from the heat, add the rum, return to the heat and cook until the alcohol has reduced.

Steps:

• In skillet over medium-high heat, add about 2 tablespoons olive oil. Once heated, add the garlic and onion, cook until pale golden brown; 2 to 3 minutes only, stirring constantly.
• Stir in the citrus juices, 2/3 cup water, 2 tablespoons of olive oil and all dry ingredients. Bring sauce mixture to a rolling boil. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
• Season the ribs with salt and pepper. Add enough oil to a hot large skillet to just cover. Add ribs and sear, about 3 minutes each side. Remove to a large shallow roasting pan.
• Add Mojo sauce over the country style ribs and turn to cover. Seal tightly with foil and roast for 3 hours. Marinate each hour with Mojo sauce. Take foil off for the last 30 minutes of cooking, or until tender.

Steps:

• Rub 3 tablespoons Latin Spice Mix all over pork. Place pork in large resealable plastic bag. Add 2 cups Lime Mojo. Close bag and refrigerate pork overnight. Cover remaining Lime Mojo and refrigerate.
• Preheat oven to 450°F. Discard marinade from pork. Place pork on rack in large roasting pan. Roast 30 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 300°F and roast until thermometer inserted into center of pork registers 150°F, about 45 minutes. Transfer pork to cutting board. Tent with foil; let stand 15 minutes. Cut pork into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Spoon reserved Lime Mojo over pork.

Steps:

• Mix together the cumin, ancho, salt and pepper in a small bowl.
• Heat grill to medium. Rub each rack with a few tablespoons of the spice mixture. Drizzle with oil and grill until golden brown and a crust as formed, about 10 minutes. Remove the ribs to a platter. Using side towels, lift the grate off the grill and place the roasting pan with the Steaming Liquid mixture on top of the coals or heat source. Return the grate to the grill.
• Return the ribs to the grill, rub side up, brush with some of the Guava Glaze, close the lid and continue grilling the pork, brushing with the guava glaze every 10 minutes until tender, about 1 1/2 hours. (If the steaming liquid evaporates before ribs are tender, add more soy and water to the pan) Remove ribs from the grill to a cutting board, brush with more of the glaze and let rest for 10 minutes. Cut the ribs, place on a platter and drizzle with the Orange-Habanero Mojo.
• Combine all ingredients in a heavy duty roasting pan.
• Whisk the guava jelly, Dijon mustard and orange juice together in a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Heat oil in a pan on the side burner of the grill or on the grates. Add onion and garlic and cook until soft. Stir in lime juice, orange juice, zests and habanero, and bring to a boil. Cook until reduced by half, remove habanero and season with salt and pepper. Stir in the cilantro and cumin.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill for direct and indirect cooking to 425 degrees F.
• Brush the pork loin all over with the olive oil and sear on all sides over the direct heat of the grill, about 15 minutes. Let cool until easy to handle, then brush the mustard on all sides of the flesh.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, turmeric, salt and pepper. Sprinkle on all sides of the pork, coating evenly.
• Place the pork, rib-side down, over the indirect heat of the grill. Lower the grill to 350 degrees F.
• In a small bowl mix the warm water, sugar and lime juice until the sugar is dissolved. Use a brush or pour into a spray bottle to baste or spritz the pork lightly while cooking, starting 20 minutes into the cooking time and continuing every 15 minutes until done. Remove from the grill when a thermometer inserted in the center (avoiding bone) rapidly reaches 145 to 150 degrees F, about 1 hour 30 minutes total. Remove and cover lightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest 15 to 20 minutes before slicing and serving.

Steps:

• Toast both the 1 tablespoon and 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds (see MOJO) in a small pan over high heat until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Grind the seeds in a spice grinder or with a mortar and pestle and reserve 1/2 teaspoon for the MOJO. Mix remaining cumin with garlic, lime juice, olive oil, salt, oregano and black pepper. Remove the pork loin from the ribs and chine bone by cutting between the beat and bones. Rub the marinade all over loin and ribs. Place the loin back onto the ribs where it was removed and tie together with butcher's twine. Place in a nonreactive container, cover, and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
• Meanwhile, make the MOJO and reserve 3/4 cup to serve with the pork.
• FOR MOJO:.
• Heat the cumin in a skillet along with the garlic and olive oil. Cook over medium-high heat until garlic begins to sizzle, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat, transfer to a nonreactive bowl, and stir in the remaining ingredients. Makes about 1 2/3 cups.
• Prepare an outdoor grill with a medium-high fire for indirect grilling. Position drip pan under grate on the cooler side of the grill. Set the roast rib side down over the drip pan on the side opposite from the heat. Cover with the vent holes over the pork and cook, basting the meat periodically with the MOJO sauce. Rotate the roast 180 degrees after 30 minutes so it cooks evenly. (Add coals to the fire as needed to maintain an even heat.) After an hour, begin to baste with MOJO every 15 minutes and set the roast on its chine (back) bone, with the fat facing the heat, so it browns evenly. Cook until a meat thermometer inserted into the center of the loin registers 140°F, about 1 1/2 hours in all.
• Remove the roast from grill, cut the twine, and let the loin rest for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, place the ribs on the grill over direct heat with the side where the loin was attached facing down. Grill, turning as needed, until evenly browned, about 4 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes and cut between the ribs. Serve ribs with sliced loin and reserved MOJO sauce.

Steps:

• Score fat side of the pork in a crosshatch pattern, cutting about 1/8 inch deep. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Combine orange juice, lime juice, olive oil, cilantro, garlic, orange zest, lime zest, bay leaves, oregano, and cumin in a large resealable bag. Add pork butt and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours. Flip the bag over occasionally and rub over roast to evenly distribute marinade.
• Place roast and marinade in the slow cooker. Cook on Low until meat is fork-tender, 7 to 8 hours.
• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Transfer pork into a roasting pan, fat-side up. Broil until lightly browned and the skin has crisped, 4 to 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Combine 1/2 of the grated garlic, all of the dried oregano, 2 teaspoons salt and the pepper into a paste.
• Score the trimmed roast with a knife point and rub the paste into the roast, then place roast in a gallon freezer bag or other dish/container that will fit in the refrigerator.
• Pour juice of 3 oranges, juice of 3 limes, the red wine, and 2 teaspoons of the lite olive oil over the roast, seal bag and turn the bag several times to combine the ingredients.
• Place in refrigerator for at least 3 hours, or the day before you plan to serve.
• Heat oven to 350°F.
• Place roast and marinade in a roasting pan, cover with foil, and roast until the meat falls apart when pulled with a fork, 3 to 4 hours, up to 6 depending on the cut- it must become fork tender.
• Remove roast from oven and let it rest for 20 minutes, then pull roast into shreds with a fork, leaving the meat in the pan juices- it's ready to serve.
• Prepare Mojo Criollo: put onion slices in a bowl deep enough for the onions to be covered with the juice (I use a 2-cup glass measuring cup).
• Put the rest of the fresh grated garlic, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, juice of 3 limes and juice of 5 oranges and the optional juice of 2 blood oranges over the onions, press down to make sure onions are submerged in the juice.
• Allow the onions to marinate in this mixture for at least 20 minutes (important step).
• Heat 1/4 cup of the lite olive oil in a skillet.
• Quickly and carefully, pour the onions and all the juices into the hot oil and"stir fry" for about 2 to 3 minutes, just to soften the onions.
• Pour the Mojo into a serving dish and serve with the roast on the side.
