A few weeks ago we went to a dinner for hub’s cousin who is getting married in a few weeks. Her Grandmother, Hub’s Aunt Mary made all the food. Aunt Mary did pulled pork and Mango Chutney (kinda more like a salsa to me, probably why i liked it!) that was just terrific! 

Cuban pulled Pork

1 to 2 lb pork loin

1/2 cup olive oil

2 T fresh oregano

Juice from 1 lime & 1 orange

1 t cumin

4 cloves garlic

4 oz crushed pineapple

1 bay leaf

Salt & pepper pork loin, place in crock pot; add all remaining ingredients, except bay leaf, to a mini food processor. Zap and pour over pork. Add bay leaf. Set on Low for 6-8 hours. use 2 forks to shred pork.

Aunt Mary’s Mango Chutney

4 pitted mangos, chopped

sm can of crushed pineapple, drained

1/2 cup brown sugar

2 t kosher salt

2 T cider vinegar

1 jalapeno pepper, seeds & ribs removed

1 T grated fresh ginger root

place all ingredients in sauce pan, bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer 20 mins. Cool completely and serve. I cut the recipe way down and only used 1 mango since it was just for us. It was yummy!!

Serve with black beans and rice for an authentic Cuban meal! It was awesome!!

Enjoy!
