CUBAN LECHON

So, here it is, its easy to make and a fantastic way to cook a pork shoulder or butt!
12-15lbs Pork Leg
2 1/2 cups of sour orange juice (2/3 orange juice, 1/3 lime juice if sour orange unavailable)
3 heads of garlic, finely chopped
2 1/2 tablespoons of oregano
2 1/2 teaspoons of cumin
2 1/2 cups of white cooking wine
sea salt to taste
Poke holes in leg and insert garlic, rub with salt
Mix remaining ingredients in bag
Place roast in bag and marinate over night (turning to coat several times)
Remove roast roast from marinade
Preheat oven to 350 degress
Place covered in oven for 5-6 hours, remove and baste several times during the process.
Remove from oven and sprinkle a dash of chopped parsley for color

Serve with Rice and Black beans or Boiled Yuca, spoon the juice over meat and yucca
