I haven't made it in ages but I have family coming so I figured I'd better be prepared for dinner.

Some Cubano Pork​

Is that anything like the Culebra ham that Mr. Buffett sings about in this song?

Lechón!

What will you be serving with it?

Rice with black beans? (Morro y Christiano? Congri?)
Tostones? Platanos maduros?

And for dessert... flan?

I applaud your home-made marinade. I usually take this shortcut....

Morros y Christianos as a side and sweet platanos for dessert.

Masitas de puerco is my all time favorite but Lechon asado is much easier and a crowd pleaser. Love me some Mojo!

Never heard of dumplings with fried pork chunks. I only do a fried ajo e cebolla garnish.

Our family recipe calls for the pork chunks to he placed in a dumpling and fried that way. Same recipe for the dumplings as pan de cubano.

When abeuelita passed away, there was a little bit of a family dispute over who would inherit her old iron skillet. Tensions were high.
I did not win.
