We used a roast that was only 5 lbs but added the vinegar and enjoyed that roast for days! It was amazing.. even the picky eaters in the home loved this pork..

This was unbelievable! I added white vinegar at the suggestion of other reviewers and I used a 2 pound piece of tenderloin because that's what I had on hand. Other than that I followed the recipe exactly. My husband (who is Puerto Rican) loved, loved, loved it. Said it was great and totally authentic. Will definately be making again and again.

This is absolutely delicious. I usually hate to make pork roast because it's usually so bland but this is wonderful and so easy. I used dried Italian seasoning since I did not have oregano by itself but otherwise made the recipe as is. I also prepared it the night before and let it marinate in the fridge overnight. I covered it with foil at the beginning to avoid the meat browning before it was cooked. Once, it was cooked, I removed the foil to brown it. It was delicious, well seasoned, and moist.

WAY too much black pepper and salt. It overpowered the roast and made it difficult to enjoy the other flavors. If I make this again, I will cut Black Pepper and salt by half.

OMG! soooooo good :) I added a bit of worcestershire sauce. My family loved it, and I have made it 3 additional times. It is the best when you marinate the meat overnight.

this was a good recipe. I did add some vinegar as other readers suggested. The meat tasted really good and fell apart when I went to serve it. I'll consider it a success.

This recipe was very good. I used a pork loin. I used adobo instead of salt and added a bit of vinegar to the paste. Besides inserting the paste into the slits, I also rubbed it all over the roast. I will definitely make again!

This was the best pork roast I've ever had! I made several small cuts and filled with the paste. The rest I just rubbed over the whole roast. Yum!

Great recipe, I used the suggestion to add some balsamic vinegar and it added the punch needed. The only thing I didn't care for is that the garlic past turned green..is that normal? In any case, very tasty and highly recommended.

Love this recipe! Easy and quick to prepare. The only change I make to it is I slow roast it at 325 degrees for 2.5 to 3 hours. It comes out very thender. Next time I will try the vinegar too the last reviewer suggested. It sounds like a great idea.

Yummy! Similar to the one I make, but I use Adobo seasoning and 1 packet of Sazon con achiote and rub the meat vigorously with it!

I make mine in the Reynolds Turkey size oven bags (this is for very large fresh hams). The meat is very tender and it seems to take less time to cook. Also, when cutting into the roast to put the spices in, I pierce a sharp steak knife as far as possible and throughout the roast . That way you can really get the flavor in.

might make again, but next time I will marinate this for a few hours, the outside tasted good, but this middle was plain. Im not a fan of pork, but I had to have a bite, it looked great coming out of the oven.

This was amazingly delicious. I followed a reviewer's recommendation and added a tablespoon of vinegar and it was so good. The outside was a bit salty but that allowed the inside to be moist. I served mashed potatoes instead of yucca.

I sauteed some onions and garlic in oil to put on top of the Yucca along with some salt, paprika, and herb mixture. This blended well with some Yellow Rice I made that contained onion, garlic, and saffron. I think next time I will include a little of the paste spices from the pork on the rice as well. The flavors of all the dishes blended well together and made an absolute "Party in your Mouth".
