VENEZUELAN PERNIL RECIPE<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When the holidays arrive, it\u2019s time to start planning my Venezuelan Pernil!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This succulent piece of meat is a holiday staple in Venezuela. It\u2019s served with Hallacas<\/a> (Venezuelan tamales), Pan de Jamon<\/a> (Venezuelan ham, olive, and raisins stuffed bread), and Ensalada de Gallina (potato and chicken salad).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Venezuelan Pernil because is juicy, tremendously tender, and tastes ridiculously delicious. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But to be honest, Pernil wasn’t always my first option when it came to holiday dishes because it took such a long time and effort to make. I mean like 4 to 6 hours, depending on how big the pork is, of roasting and basting. That is why I got so excited when I discovered that I can prepare Pernil without slaving over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How? Using an oven bag<\/a>!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oh. Em. Gee. I do not know why it took me so long to discover this trick. It cuts the cooking time significantly. Plus, the bag traps in moisture and natural juices to keep food from drying out so it comes out juicy and tender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This incredibly savory and guest-worthy dish Pernil will make your taste buds dance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
