Mojo Criollo is one the staple marinades and sauces in the Cuban kitchen. Here we use it as a marinade in citrus and cane sugar vinegar and onion and cilantro, you could add garlic and olive oil and enjoy as a sauce to dip your chops in as well. The key players at work here is the high acid marinade to cut through and provide balance to the fat in the pork. Citrus and Pork is a combination that could make into the pantheon of great food pairings such as tomato and basil. This doesn't need to be just for your chops on the grill, add the marinade to any cut and cooking technique for a delicious meal.
The flavor of the peppercorns is almost as important as that of the beautifully marbled steak in this recipe, so we hope you’ll take the time to carefully toast and crush these peppercorns for optimal flavor. We know you’ll truly appreciate the difference a little extra time takes in this simple recipe.
