MASAS DE PUERCO (CUBAN FRIED PORK)
This recipe is from the restaurant, Havana Rumba. It is important to cut away as much of the exterior fat as possible before cooking. The shoulder is well marbled and will have enough fat in it to keep it moist during the cooking. The meat will shrink somewhat in the braising.
