Roast Pork Puertoricano

    This was very good. I only used one jalapeno and it was a pretty mild one as I was afraid using two for the small amount of meat would be a waste. I might try pickled jalapeno next time for more heat. The orange flavor came through nicely though. I marinated about 16 hours or so overnight. It did take a bit longer than 25 minutes to complete cooking - about 20-25 minutes more in my oven. I took out at a little over 155, letting it coast up to 160 out of the oven. Juicy and tender - delish! Thanks for sharing :

    Roast Pork Puertoricano, I adapted this recipe from a recipe I copied from a cookbook a while ago. It’s pretty simple to make and tastes really fresh and different from most other roast pork recipes. I serve it with rice and beans and a tomato salad., This was very good.

Spicy, savory and delicious…. just like me : My kids hated it, but they didn’t try it so that doesn’t count. My DH liked it, and I loved it. The smell was fabulous. The orange flavo was just right with the spice. Awesome. Made and Reviewed for PRMR. Thanks! :
