This is a typical Cuban roast and is generally done throughout the area of Central America. It is a meat that is very good because of the way of macerating it with oranges, lemon and the touch of cumin that never lacks in Caribbean cuisine. The normal thing in Cuba is that this meat plate is served with black beans and white rice, all on the same dish. It is equally good just made that cold the next day for snacks or to accompany with a simple salad.
