JUICY CUBAN MOJO PORK ROAST (CHEF MOVIE RECIPE)
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!

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.

Steps:
- Transfer to the refrigerator: Marinate the pork for 4-12 hours in the refrigerator. If the pork is not fully covered in the marinade, turn it over during the marinating time to make sure it's getting all it can from the mojo. Because I usually begin marinating my pork roast the evening before cooking it, I usually turn it in the morning after it's marinated overnight.
- Heat the oven to 350°F
- Rest the meat: When the roast is ready, remove it from the oven. The top will be beautifully caramelized from the sugars and the aromatics that were in the mojo. Loosely cover the roast with a large piece of aluminum foil and allow it to rest for 15 minutes while you heat the reserved 1 1/2 cups of mojo sauce. Mojo is pungent and can be overwhelming in its raw form. To serve it as a sauce, it's best to cook it to soften the harshness a bit.
- Make a slurry: In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch and 1 tablespoon from the reserved mojo and stir together until no lumps of cornstarch remain.
- Serve the roast pork and sauce: After the pork has rested, which allows the juices to settle down and not run everywhere when you cut it, use a carving knife to slice the roast. Serve it with a side of rice and beans and plantains. Pour the sauce over the sliced portions of pork after serving. LEFTOVERS! Leftovers may be refrigerated for 2-3 days and reheated in the microwave or, my favorite way, by lightly sautéing in a skillet with a bit of mojo sauce until warmed through. Any leftover mojo sauce should be covered and stored in the refrigerator.

Steps:
- Heat your skillet or griddle: I like to use two cast iron skillets nested on top of one another, pressing the sandwich in between. To use this method, place both skillets (one on top of the other) over medium heat and let them heat through. If using a panini press set it to medium heat. The skillet or griddle shouldn't be screaming hot, but it should radiate enough heat to toast the bread slowly. If you aren't using the double pan method or a panini press, just use anything you have to weigh the sandwich down - a foil wrapped brick, your spatula, whatever you have will do.
- Serve: Remove your sandwich from the skillet or griddle. Slice your sandwich according to the number of guests you need to serve and serve the sandwich with a handful of chips and a pickle or two. LEFTOVERS! Leftovers should be wrapped in foil and stored in the refrigerator. They may be reheated by cooking the same as above.

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.

CUBAN-STYLE PORK SANDWICHES
Loaded with tangy flavor, this is a lighter version of a favorite restaurant-style sandwich. If you don't have a panini maker, tuck the sandwiches under the broiler until the bread is browned and the cheese melted. -Robin Haas, Cranston, Rhode Island

CUBAN PORK ROAST SANDWICH
Recipe attempting to recreate a recently closed sandwich shop in Seattle. I merged a few recipes I found online. I use a Traeger pellet grill for slow cooking the pork, but I suppose you can use any slow cooking technique.

Steps:
- Prepare Pork for Slow Cooking (1 day):.
- Combine marinade ingredients.
- Stab the pork all over to allow for better marinade penetration.
- Marinade pork for 12-24 hours.
- Remove from marinade and bring to room temperature (reserve marinade for later).
- Heat large skillet with a small amount of olive oil until smoking hot.
- Sear pork on all sides in skillet.
- Leave the pan alone and keep it for cooking onions later.
- Place pork in roasting pan, and pour marinade into pan (ideally pan should be about 3 inches wider/longer then pork.).
- Loosely tent pan with foil.
- Slow Cook Pork (preferably use Traeger pellet grill):.
- Place in 300 degree oven (or preferably Traeger pellet grill).
- Cook for 2 hours tented.
- Reduce heat to 250.
- Cook for 1 more hour uncovered, basting every 20 minutes with marinade.
- Turn Pork over and cook for 1 more hour, basting every 20 minutes with marinade.
- Your cooking time will vary depending on meat and pan size. Uncovering the pan is done to reduce the marinade. Your goal is to use most of the marinade but not to burn it. You will still have considerable burnt and caramelized pieces at the end of the cooking cycle. Re-cover the pan if necessary, to preserve liquid. The pork should basically fall apart by the end of the cooking cycle.
- Remove pork, cover with foil and let sit for 30 minutes.
- Pull the pork apart into medium sized chunks with claws.
- Aioli (prepare while cooking pork and refrigerate):.
- Soak white bread in vinegar.
- Place it in a kitchen aid mixer with all remaining ingredients EXCEPT olive oil.
- Whip on medium setting until thoroughly blended.
- Slowly drizzle in NON-Extra virgin (regular) Olive Oil. Increase speed of the mixer as it begins to emulsify and turn into a mayonnaise-like consistency.
- Place in refrigerator.
- Caramelize Onions (Prepare while letting the pork rest):.
- Cut onion into thick slices (about 1/2 inch wide).
- Heat pan used for searing pork over Medium/low heat adding a little olive oil.
- Add onion to pan.
- Slowly caramelize onions, stirring occasionally. Onions should be soft and browned, but not burnt.
- Prepare the sandwich:.
- The original used a harder roll sliced completely in half. I use a Bahn Mi roll cut more like a Philly steak sandwich bun. I get my buns at Q Bakery in Columbia City. This allows me to stuff the sandwich and not have a complete mess.
- Cut roll and LIGHTLY toast inside.
- Spread Aioli generously on inside.
- Add some cilantro, a branch of romaine, a few jalapeños, some caramelized onions, and stuff with pork.
- Finally, eat the best sandwich ever.
