How To Cook: |
|
|
1. Allow shoulder to come to room temperature and then rub it with olive oil, crushed garlic, salt and freshly ground black pepper, and ground cumin.
|
FOR RARE CABRITO:
|
1. In a preheated 400°F oven, bake the roast, uncovered on a roasting rack, for 40 minutes, so the meat can brown.
|
2. Turn the oven down to 325°F and bake for an additional 40 to 50 minutes, or until a meat thermometer registers 140°F.
|
3. Remember to insert the thermometer in the thickest part of the roast, being careful not to touch the bone.
|
4. Remove the meat from the oven and allow it to sit for ½ hour before slicing. It will continue to cook during this time. Slice and serve with the pan juices.
|
FOR MEDIUM CABRITO:
|
1. Follow the instructions for rare but cook a bit longer so that the thermometer registers 145°F to 150°F.
|
TIP:
|
Slice and serve with pan juices.
