Our favorite Cuban dish is fried pork chunks. I found a very authentic recipe on epicurean.com. I cut up the pork loin and marinated it last night. Tonight when I got home I cooked it on the Lg BGE in a CI skillet and then when the meat was done I fried the meat & onions in my Wok. It came out very tender and tasty. I will definitely do this again. Next time I will fix black beans & rice...tonight I served it with rice in chicken stock & a squeeze of lime.

Looks great! water & oil?

I know it sounds weird but you braise the meat in 2 cups water & 1/2 cup olive oil after marinating it overnight. It cooks up in about 45 minutes at 350 direct. It comes out very tender....

Never heard of such a thing. I will have to try it.

That looks great, Kim. Any kind of fried pork works for me, and the lime is the thing that makes it soooo good!
