Pernil Preparation

Method

Pernil Preparation

1

Marinate the Pork

In a large bowl, combine minced garlic, sliced onion, olive oil, oregano, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the pork shoulder and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

2

Cook the Pork

Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F). Place the marinated pork shoulder in a roasting pan and add water. Cover with foil and roast for about 3-4 hours, or until the meat is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork. Remove the foil during the last 30 minutes to crisp the skin.

3

Shred the Pork

Once cooked, remove the pork from the oven and let it rest for 20 minutes. Shred the meat using two forks, discarding any excess fat.

Sandwich Assembly

4

Prepare the Bread

Slice the bread rolls in half and lightly toast them if desired.

5

Assemble the Sandwich

On the bottom half of each bread roll, layer shredded pernil, a slice of Swiss cheese, pickles, and chopped cilantro. Spread mustard on the top half of the roll and place it on top to complete the sandwich.

6

Serve

Serve the sandwiches warm, with extra pickles and mustard on the side.
