CUBAN STYLE PIG ROAST RECIPES

Steps:

• Pierce pork all over with a carving fork. Rub salt then liquid smoke over meat. Place roast in a slow cooker.
• Cover, and cook on Low for 16 to 20 hours, turning once during cooking time.
• Remove meat from slow cooker, and shred, adding drippings as needed to moisten.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
• Season the ribs well with salt and pepper and place them on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil and fitted with a baking rack. For Bone-in, dry-roast for 90 minutes, uncovered. [See Note 3]For Boneless, cover with foil and bake for 90 minutes. [See Notes 1 & 2]
• Meanwhile, combine all of the BBQ sauce ingredients in a saucepan and slowly bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low and gently simmer until dark, thick, and richly flavored 10 to 15 minutes.Pour off any abundance of grease that has collected in the pan.
• After 90 minutes, remove the baking tray from the oven and carefully pour off any abundance of liquid and oil that has collected in the pan. [See Note 4]
• Next, increase the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Baste the ribs with BBQ sauce and return, uncovered, to the oven.
• Continue basting in 30-minute intervals, turning the ribs each time you baste with sauce. After 90 minutes, the meat will begin to fall apart it's so tender – you’ll notice this when you turn the ribs during basting.
• Once the ribs are tender, increase the oven to broil. While the oven heats, baste the ribs one last time before returning to the oven.
• Broil the ribs for a minute or two just to caramelize the sauce. The sugars in the sauce can char fast so be sure to stay close to the oven during the broiling process.
• Serve with your favorite BBQ sides like mac n cheese, cole slaw, or potato salad.
