Lechon Asado - Puerto Rican Pork Roast - pron

[LYU370]

So after seeing Ross's post I had to make it. Found a picnic ham on sale during the week. Like Ross, I did a variation of Steven Raichlen's recipe. But being a Polak, I used about 20 cloves of garlic. Hey, some of the other recipes I found called for 20-30 cloves. Didn't do the Annatto oil or BBQ sauce.

Into the FEC for about 9 hours at 250.

Took it to 170 so I could slice it...

Served with some "El Cid" Black Beans. Thanks caseydog

Good stuff! Took the skin off after 7 hours, threw it on the grill to crisp it up. Note to self, pay attention next time so you don't burn it to a crisp .

Looks real tasty.

That looks delish, Am I right in thinking Picnic ham is uncooked when you buy it?

Nice plate!

Correct, uncooked. Was in the meat case, right next to the pork butts.
