    My family loves Latin food, especially Puerto Rican cuisine! This Slow Cooker Pernil (Puerto Rican Roast Pork) is a staple in our home! Trust me, when you walk in the door from wherever you are all day youre going to be happy you made this!,Pernil is a typical dish I grew up eating, its popular in the Latin Caribbean islands such as Puerto Rico and Cuba, served with rice and beans during the holidays or whenever theres a reason to celebrate.,A typical Pernil recipe is slow roasted in the oven with a huge slab of fat on top, which gets crispy as it cooks. My lightened version, use a boneless shoulder blade roast, trimmed of all the fat. This dish is easy enough to make as a weeknight meal.
