Cuban style pork loin

A taste of Cuba

Started this off with some thick sliced pork loin marinated for 8 hours in a Cuban style sauce. I didn't get a picture of the package unfortunately.



Next up I dry roasted some brown rice in the Dutch oven. First time I've done this..really didn't notice any difference.


I got the rice cooking and then got some onion and tomatoes cut and got some chopped garlic,cumin,black beans and chili powder together.




I set the MAK to high with the grill grates in and pre heated it for 25 minutes. Time to cook some meat!


In the mean time I sautéed the onions in olive oil then added the tomatoes and spices. Yeah that's a pile of garlic!




Time for a lil flippage..



Oh yeah! Gotta good char going!



Added some beans to the tomato,onion,garlic mix.


Nice! Chops are done!


Put a bit of rice on the plate with the tomato,onion,black bean and garlic on top.


Add a thick sliced cuban style marinated charred pork loin cooked with oak pellets to the plate, fix ya up a mojito and you have a "taste of Cuba" !





It turned out really good! It has me wanting to make a sauce from scratch now. I'll be looking into Cuban flavors now for sure.

Thanks for looking!

Very nicely done, got grill grates in my cart.

Imitation is the highest form of flattery. I will have to try this soon. Looks awesome.

I was just thinking that some mojo pork may be in the works next weekend. Really nice work.

Chili you really nailed it. That looks super good. Love everything on that plate.

I can smell Cuba chili! Love the mojito aspect. Nailed it with this one!

Beautiful! I cooked a Thai dish this weekend with similar looking pork chops...but no pellet used so no post.

LOVE mojitos, plate looked amazing! Nice job!

Thanks guys!

Love Cuban food. Yours looks fantastic!!

I'm not so familiar with Cuban cuisine, so I'm gonna have to give this a try myself!
