Asado Pork Rolls with Mojo Sauce
Asado, is a traditional South American barbecue method, and has its roots in the cultural practices of the 'gauchos', or cowboys, in the Argentina and Uruguay region. While beef is the primary meat associated with asado, pork variations have also become popular. Over time, asado pork has become a celebrated dish, often prepared during festive occasions, bringing people together to enjoy the rich, smoky flavors of slow-cooked pork over an open flame. Well there is no open flame here! Though you could do that with your marinated pork if you wished.
We did make our own baguettes. It will make a lot of difference to your end result, unless you live in Europe in which case run down the road and pick up an awesome one for less than a Euro! (sigh)
Enjoy...and you will. That Mojo Sauce will show up elsewhere, we are sure of it!
