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.

SLOW COOKER MOJO PORK
A Cuban-style pork roast marinated and cooked low and slow. Normally bitter oranges are used but they can be hard to find. To make it easy I subbed limes and oranges, using both the juices and the zest. Serve with black beans and white rice for a complete meal. Plan ahead because this roast is marinated from 6 hours to overnight.

INSTANT POT CUBAN MOJO PORK
This Instant Pot take on the classic Cuban lechon asado means you get all the flavors of tender shredded pork shoulder in a fraction of the time. The mojo marinade, loaded with garlic and onion, is typically made with sour oranges, but a combination of oranges and limes delivers that same tang. I promise you: The mojo is so good you could drink it! If you love it as much as I do, you can even make extra to serve on the side.

Steps:
- For the mojo: Combine the orange juice, lime juice, onion, garlic, olive oil, oregano, cumin, 3 teaspoons kosher salt and a few grinds pepper in a blender. Blend until smooth and the mojo is emulsified. Set aside.
- For the pork: Pierce some small slashes in the pork with a sharp paring knife to allow the mojo marinade to penetrate. Place the pork in a large bowl. Add the mojo, cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 8 hours.
- When ready to cook, remove the pork from the bowl and dab off the excess marinade. Reserve the marinade in the bowl for cooking.
- Set a 6- to 8-quart Instant Pot® to saute and add the canola oil (see Cook's Note). Cook each piece of pork until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Depending on the size of your pork and Instant Pot, you may need to do this in batches. Combine all the pork with the reserved marinade in the pot. Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 1 hour. (It will take 8 to 10 minutes to come up to pressure.)
- After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for natural release. After 20 minutes, being careful to release any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid.
- Remove the pork to a medium bowl. Strain the liquid from the Instant Pot through a fine-mesh sieve, then remove and discard the grease and solids. Return the liquid to the pot, set to saute and simmer until the sauce is reduced by half, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, shred the pork with 2 forks. Once the sauce is reduced, toss with the shredded pork and serve.
CRACKLING CRUST ROAST PORK WITH MOJO RECIPE BY TASTY
This crispy, citrusy roast pork will be the star of your dinner table. The pork shoulder is marinated in a Cuban-inspired mojo sauce, baked for hours until tender, then broiled for that crispy, crackly skin. Pro tip: use a sharp knife to score the pork skin. This will help any excess fat render out during cooking, as well as allow those mojo flavors to really penetrate the meat!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) .
- Using a sharp knife, score the pork skin and fat in a diamond pattern, spacing the cuts ½ inch apart and taking care not to cut into the meat.
- Combine the garlic and salt in a food processor and pulse until the garlic is finely chopped. Add the olive oil, whole oregano leaves, cumin, and orange and lime zests and process into a smooth paste.
- Rub the paste all over the pork shoulder, making sure it gets into the scores. Transfer the pork shoulder to a baking dish or a roasting pan and pour the lime and orange juices around the pork. Cover the baking dish with foil.
- Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the pork registers between 180°F (82°C) and 190°F (88°C), 6-7 hours. Remove the pork from the oven and turn on the broiler.
- Uncover the pork and turn the oven to broil. Return the pork to the oven and broil until the skin puffs and is golden brown and crisp, 10-15 minutes. Transfer the pork to a cutting board and let rest for 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, pour the pan juices into a small saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook until reduced slightly, about 10 minutes. Remove the sauce from the heat and pour through a fine-mesh strainer into a small bowl. Skim off the fat, if desired. Stir the finely chopped oregano into the sauce.
- Serve the pork shoulder with the sauce and your favorite side dishes.
- Enjoy!

TRADITIONAL CUBAN RECIPE: CUBAN MOJO (CUBAN MARINADE)
There are many variations of mojo. It is the signature marinade of Cuba and it finds its way into many varied dishes. After searching through many recipes and cookbooks; I found this in on www.icuban.com and in "Three Guys from Miami Cook Cuban" by: three brothers-in-law, Glenn Lindgren, Raul Musibay and Jorge Castillo. Many mojos do not include oil; with or without oil the key element is "sour" orange, an almost bitter orange that grows throughout Cuba and now it flourishes in most Miami backyards. In a pinch use: 2 parts orange juice to 1 part lemon juice and 1 part lime juice. The key to a good mojo is in the proportions; garlic, salt, whole black peppercorns and sour orange juice are it's main ingredients.Update: 04/14/08 add a teaspoon of cumin (if you so desire) there are many recipes that call for it but we don't use it here! I have been using this mojo since I left my mother's house, as we always used it in Cuba and Haiti.:)
