Your Thanksgiving Guests Won't Want to Leave After Tasting This Lech´on Recipe

Growing up, I remember my grandmother, mom, aunts, and uncles making plans for Noche Buena and having talks about who was going to be making that year's Lech´on and where.




Back in the Dominican Republic, as it is true in many other Latin countries, the main dish for Christmas Eve dinner is Lech´on asado or roasted pork. What makes it such a special dish and the subject of a lot of planning ahead is that the pig is typically cooked on an open flame. The preparing process is a huge part of the experience of celebrating This holiday night with family and friends, getting together to eat and be merry.



Roasted pork is a must-have holiday dish for my family and me. But roasting an entire pork on an open flame in a suburban neighborhood of New York City during wintertime is practically impossible. That is why we opt to use pork shoulder instead.




This Recipe uses a Cuban-style marinade made with garlic, cumin, oregano, black pepper, and the juice of three sour oranges. If you cannot find sour oranges around you, you can substitute them by using freshly squeezed orange juice and lemon juice together.




This Lech´on asado is so good you'll be printing out copies of This Recipe and handing them out to everyone who attended Your party!
