Pork

Pork is the heart of Puerto Rican cooking, and I've spent a lifetime perfecting it. Marinate overnight, then roast low and slow for melting meat and crisp, crackling skin called cuerito.

Master the crown jewel, Pernil. Pan-fry juicy Chuletas Fritas, grill Pinchos on skewers, or fill and crimp Pork Picadillo Empanadas.
