Wowzers! We didn't expect this to taste this good!

There’s something soul-satisfying about slow-cooked pork infused with the vibrant flavors of citrus and garlic. Growing up in the Midwest, we've always cherished our hearty, comforting meals, but it’s a joy to explore dishes from other cultures too. This Low Carb Cuban Mojo Pork brings a taste of the tropics to our humble kitchens, all while keeping it friendly for those watching their carbs. It’s a dish steeped in rich history, born from the sunny shores of Cuba, yet it finds a comforting place on our family tables, reminiscent of the slow-cooked roasts my grandmother used to make.
This Cuban Mojo Pork pairs wonderfully with a fresh, crisp salad or some steamed vegetables. For a heartier side, consider a serving of cauliflower rice seasoned with a bit of lime and cilantro, which complements the zesty flavors of the pork beautifully. Add a side of pickled red onions or a dollop of guacamole for some extra zing, and you'll have a meal that’s as delightful to eat as it is nourishing.
