Barbecue Pork Tenderloin

Another festive island dish is lechón asado, or barbecued pig, which is usually cooked for a party of 12 or 15. The pig is basted with sour orange juice and achiote coloring. Green plantains are peeled and roasted over hot stones, then served with the barbecued pig as a side dish. If it's just not practical for you to roast a whole pig this year, you might settle for barbecued pork tenderloin served with grilled plantains.
