		<description>That&#039;s a good point, it&#039;s one of many things we&#039;ve planned to do more of again and again. As always, time is the issue. But we&#039;ll try and get on that.

Try this recipe in the meantime:

Cochinita Pibil

A Mexican pork recipe 

Serving Size : 6

ONE DAY AHEAD:

    * 3 1/2 pounds (to 4-1/2) pork, preferably end of loin, untrimmed
    * 2 teaspoons salt
    * 2 tablespoons Seville orange juice (see note)
    * 1 tablespoon achiote seeds (heaping)
    * 1/4 teaspoon cumin seeds
    * 1/4 teaspoon oregano
    * 12 peppercorns
    * 3 whole allspice
    * 4 cloves garlic, peeled
    * 1/8 teaspoon powdered chile seco (may substitute hot paprika)
    * 1 teaspoon Salt
    * 3 tablespoons Seville orange juice or Mild white vinegar
    * 2 large pieces banana leaf 

Serving day

    * A Dutch oven
    * the wrapped meat
    * 1/2 cup cold water 

Salsa

    * 1/2 cup onion -- very finely chopped
    * 3 chiles habaneros -- very finely chopped
    * 1/2 teaspoon Salt
    * 2/3 cup Seville orange juice 

Pierce the pork all over and rub in the 2 teaspoons salt and 2 tablespoons orange juice. Set aside while you prepare the seasoning paste.
Grind the achiote seeds, cumin, oregano, peppercorns and allspice together to a fine powder.

Crush the garlic together with the chile seco, salt and 3 tablespoons Seville orange juice and mix with other powdered spices. The mixture should be a thick paste. Coat the pork with the paste.
Lightly sear the banana leaves over a bare flame to make them more flexible. Wrap the meat up in them and leave to season in the refrigerator for at least six hours or overnight.

ON SERVING DAY: Preheat oven to 325°. Place a rack at the bottom of the Dutch oven and cover the dish with a tight fitting lid. Cook for 2 1/2 hours. Turn the meat and baste it well with the juices at the bottom of the pot. Cook for another 2 1/2 hours, or until the meat is soft and falling off the bone.
Meanwhile, prepare the salsa: mix all ingredients together. Set aside to season for about 2 hours. Serve in a separate dish.

After cooking, shred the meat roughly. Pour the fat and juices from the pan over it. Serve hot, with tortillas and the sauce so that each person can make his or her own tacos.

NOTE: A rough approximation of Seville orange juice may be attained through the following: For 1/2 cup blended juice, combine 1 teaspoon finely grated grapefruit rind, 3 tablespoons orange juice, 3 tablespoons grapefruit juice and 2 tablespoons lemon juice.

		<description>These reviews are great and all, but why the complete lack of recipes?  I&#039;m sure there are enough adventurous cooks out there who would love some good basic recipes to build from.</description>
