Ybor City historically is know as being a town almost entirely compromised of immigrants, one of the large populations of Cuban immigrants came to this area in the 1880\u2019s. Without getting into too much more of the history you can guess, there was some pretty amazing food, specifically Cuban cuisine.<\/p>\n<p>After stuffing my face with a few Cuban Sandwiches I knew I was going to need to recreate them at home. So my first job was settling in on a Mojo Pork recipe, and here we are.<\/p>\n<p>Mojo Pork is a cuban style roast with a basic marinade consisting or orange, lime, garlic, oregano, and cumin.<\/p>\n<p>Making it the perfect contender for the slow cooker.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" data-slot-rendered-content=\"true\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-15013 entered lazyloaded\" src=\"https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Secondary_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1-683x1024.jpeg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Secondary_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1-683x1024.jpeg 683w, https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Secondary_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1-200x300.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Secondary_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1.jpeg 720w\" alt=\"\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" data-lazy-srcset=\"https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Secondary_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1-683x1024.jpeg 683w, https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Secondary_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1-200x300.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Secondary_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1.jpeg 720w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Secondary_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1.jpeg\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Secondary_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1-683x1024.jpeg\" data-pin-nopin=\"true\" data-ll-status=\"loaded\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>You can make Mojo Pork with the pork shoulder\/pork butt, also called in some cases a Boston Butt. It is actually the cut of pork that comes from the upper part of the front shoulder. It is the cut of pork typically used for making pulled pork.<\/p>\n<p>The pork cooks slowly with the marinade in the crockpot and comes out tender and ready to eat.<\/p>\n<p>Now my one problem with some recipes like this is that the meat sometimes can come out a little soggy, so to alleviate that I am using that same trick I use for my Crockpot Carnitas. After pulling the pork apart I place it on a sheet tray and place it under the broiler in the oven for a few minutes. This crisps the pork right up, solving the texture problem. Of course this part is optional but I think it makes the pork more enjoyable to eat.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" data-slot-rendered-content=\"true\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-15012 entered lazyloaded\" src=\"https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Overhread_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1-683x1024.jpeg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Overhread_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1-683x1024.jpeg 683w, https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Overhread_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1-200x300.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Overhread_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1.jpeg 720w\" alt=\"\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" data-lazy-srcset=\"https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Overhread_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1-683x1024.jpeg 683w, https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Overhread_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1-200x300.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Overhread_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1.jpeg 720w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Overhread_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1.jpeg\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Overhread_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1-683x1024.jpeg\" data-pin-nopin=\"true\" data-ll-status=\"loaded\" \/><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Equipment<\/h3>\n<p>For this recipe you don\u2019t need anything fancy. A standard 6 quart slow cooker will do the trick!<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ingredients<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\" data-slot-rendered-content=\"true\">\n<li><strong>Pork Butt\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 Around 4 pounds &amp; preferably boneless, also called a Boston Butt. It is actually the cut of pork that comes from the upper part of the front shoulder. It is the cut of pork typically used for making pulled pork. If you only have one with a bone available it should work just fine.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fresh Orange Juice\/1 large orange<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Part of the key to this recipe is using fresh squeezed citrus juices, so buy the actually fruits instead of the juices. You should only need 1 large orange.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fresh Lime Juice\/2-3 limes<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Same goes for the lime, if possible try to grab fresh limes, you will need to use between 2 late limes or 3 small limes. If by chance you try to use bottled lime juice just note that some of the true lime flavor might get lost and your dish will most likely be relying on citric acid for flavor (which is totally fine but you might loose any lime flavors).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Kosher Salt<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 If you don\u2019t have kosher salt substitute for sea salt. if you need to use table salt use half of the amount. I always recommend using kosher slat for cooking, the structure helps is dissolve better into the food.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cumin<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 One of the two spices typically found in Mojo Pork<\/li>\n<li><strong>Oregano\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 The second spice typically found in Mojo Pork<\/li>\n<li><strong>Garlic<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 And garlic, you will use quite a bit of garlic in this recipe, since it is a fairly garlic heavy recipe I recommend trying to use the fresh stuff instead of the pre minced garlic if possible.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"mv-ad-box\" data-slotid=\"content_3_btf\">\n<div class=\"mv-rail-frame-350\" data-slotid=\"content_3_btf\">\n<div class=\"mv-rail-slide-350\" data-slotid=\"content_3_btf\">\n<div class=\"mv-rail-sticky-350\" data-slotid=\"content_3_btf\">\n<div id=\"content_3_btf_wrapper\" class=\"adunitwrapper content_btf_wrapper mv-size-320x50\" data-wrapper=\"content_3_btf\" data-nosnippet=\"\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>For a complete detailed list of the ingredients continue towards the bottom of the page.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" data-slot-rendered-content=\"true\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-15010 entered lazyloaded\" src=\"https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Ingredients_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1-683x1024.jpeg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Ingredients_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1-683x1024.jpeg 683w, https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Ingredients_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1-200x300.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Ingredients_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1.jpeg 720w\" alt=\"\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" data-lazy-srcset=\"https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Ingredients_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1-683x1024.jpeg 683w, https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Ingredients_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1-200x300.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Ingredients_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1.jpeg 720w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Ingredients_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1.jpeg\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Ingredients_Crockpot_Mojo_Pork-720x1080-1-683x1024.jpeg\" data-pin-nopin=\"true\" data-ll-status=\"loaded\" \/><\/figure>\n<div class=\"wp-block-group pro-tip\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><span id=\"pro_tip\" class=\"ez-toc-section\"><\/span>pro tip<\/h2>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong><em>Pre-heat your crockpot as you are getting everything prepped and added!

This is a great recipe to actually prep ahead the night before for a more flavorful dish! Proceed with the cutting of the pork and adding it so a large container with a lid or a ziplock bag. Make the sauce as written and add it to the pork. Make sure you give is a stir or shake so everything is covered. You can let it marinade for up to 24 hours before dumping into the crockpot to cook! This will give your dish extra tenderness and flavor!<\/p>\n<p><strong>How is mojo pronounced?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You look at the word mojo and think it might be pronounced, \u201cmo-joe\u201d but it is Spanish. So Mojo is pronounced \u201cmo-ho\u201d because the letter\u00a0<em>j<\/em>\u00a0is pronounced as an\u00a0<em>h<\/em>, just like jalape\u00f1o.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What to make with mojo pork?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You can of course serve it as a main dish by itself but I enjoy it most as a <strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/cuban-bowl-pork-black-beans-rice\/\">Cuban Bowl<\/a><\/em><\/strong> or in a <a href=\"https:\/\/theschmidtywife.com\/homemade-cuban-sandwich\/\"><em><strong>Cuban Sandwich<\/strong><\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>But in general you might want to serve it with rice and black beans!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" data-slot-rendered-content=\"true\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-15007
