Tonight, let's make amazing Cuban Mojo Pork with Sweet Plantains and Black Beans and Rice! First, marinate the pork shoulder in the citrusy mojo sauce for at least 4 hours, or ideally overnight, for maximum flavor. The next day, searing and slow braising it for 3-4 hours transforms it into a tender, flavorful masterpiece. While the pork rests, quick-cook rice and heat black beans. Lastly, fry sweet plantains to golden perfection. This delicious meal takes time, but is so worth it!
