How to Make Puerto Rican Pork A La Criolla
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, 4 cloves minced garlic, 2 teaspoons dried oregano, 1 tablespoon white vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 ½ teaspoons freshly cracked black pepper.
- Rub the mixture generously all over a 3-4 pound boneless pork shoulder roast.
- Place the roast in a shallow baking pan and roast uncovered at 350°F (175°C) for approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes.
- Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the roast. It should register 165-170°F (74-77°C). If not, continue roasting in 15-minute increments until it reaches the desired temperature.
- Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful roast.
