• xenforo has sucessfully updated our forum software last night. Howevr, that has returned many templates to stock formats which MAY be missing some previous functionality. It has also fixed some boroken templates Ive taken offline. Reat assured, we are working on getting our templates back to normal, but will take a few days. Im working top down, so best bet is to stick with the default templates as I work thru them.

A little adventure with some Puerto Rican and Cuban recipes.
Started with a Puerto Rican Roast pork which I did on the Weber kettle rotisserie.

Made up the marinade in my blender;

Took off the netting, poked a bunch of holes, slathered on the marinade and made sure it got down deep in the holes, then renetted.

Put that in a bag with the remaining marinade, that went in the fridge for the night.

This was the set up for the cook;

Put this on at around 130 this afternoon, let it go on the rotisserie for 6 hours at 300 degrees give or take, for an IT of around 180.

While that was cooking I prepped for the Black beans and rice (Puerto Rican) and the green beans (Cuban).

The roast shortly before coming off, about 5 1/2 hours.

Finished up the sides while the roast rested.

Man o man this was a treat! The pork was moist, tender and full of flavor. And the sides were all delicious, just a fantastic meal :clap:.

I also entered this in the "Latin American Flair" throwdown here: http://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/showthread.php?t=227777

Wow, Kim. You did yourself proud on this one! Everything looks amazing!
 
That all looks awesome mate, pat yourself on the back
 
That looks great! Nice job!
 
Yes, please, KC!

I've only done pork pernil in the oven... with a bit more liquid (and def not on the spin cycle). Would love to try what you've got going on there.
 
Looks great! Just did one very similar last week. Could you imagine trying to spin that without the netting though?
 
Thanks everybody for all the nice comments, it was a fun cook and everything really turned out very very tasty.

Thanks. In this case it probably would have worked fine without the netting. When I took the netting off to rub it down I expected it to come apart where the bone had been cut out, but it was one solid hunk of meat. All worked out great either way :-D.
