Mojo Pork Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Marinate the Pork

    In a blender, combine garlic, orange juice, lime juice, olive oil, cumin, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth. Place the pork shoulder in a large resealable bag and pour the marinade over the pork. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

  2. 2

    Slow Roast the Pork

    Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Remove the pork from the marinade and place it in a roasting pan. Cover with foil and roast for approximately 4-5 hours, or until the pork is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Tacos

    Once the pork is cooked, shred it with two forks. Warm the taco shells or tortillas in a separate pan or oven. Assemble the tacos by adding a generous amount of shredded pork, diced red onion, sliced avocado, and fresh cilantro to each shell.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve the tacos with lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
