ROPA VIEJA (CUBAN BEEF)
This Cuban braised beef dish literally translates to 'old clothes,' because apparently some people thought the fall-apart meat and colorful strips of onions and peppers, tangled together, looked like old, tattered clothing. You'll love this dish if you're into big, bold flavors, since there's nothing subtle about the seasoning here. Delicious served with beans, rice, and plantain chips. Garnish with more cilantro.

Steps:
- Cut flank steak in half across the grain. Mix salt, black pepper, and cayenne. Season both sides generously with the salt mixture.
- Heat olive oil in a pot over high heat. Add steaks and cook until outsides are well browned, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Remove steaks to a plate.
- Reduce heat to medium. Add red onion, garlic, and more of the salt seasoning. Cook and stir until starting to soften, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in cumin, paprika, oregano, cayenne pepper, cloves, and allspice. Cook and stir for 1 minute. Pour in white wine, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Stir in tomato sauce and chicken broth.
- Return beef and accumulated juices to the pot. Season with salt and add bay leaves. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until beef is almost fork-tender, not falling apart, about 2 hours.
- Remove pot from heat and let stew cool to room temperature, at least 45 minutes. Refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight, for best results.
- Remove beef to a plate and set stew over medium heat. Tear beef along the grain into 1/8- to 1/4-inch-wide shreds; place back in the stew. Add bell peppers, poblanos, smoked paprika, capers, olives, and sugar. Stir together and reduce heat to medium. Simmer until peppers are soft and meat is tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Turn off heat, remove bay leaves, and stir in cilantro.

BOLICHE CUBANO - CUBAN-STYLE STUFFED BEEF ROAST
Chorizo-Stuffed Beef Roast On the Cuban family table, a special meal would not be complete without Boliche, or Cuban-Style Stuffed Beef Roast. The beef (most commonly eye of round roast), is marinated in the tangy Cuban marinade, GOYA® Mojo Criollo Marinade, then stuffed with chorizo, and cooked in a flavorful wine broth until the beef is meltingly tender. Potatoes, carrots and olives are often added to the broth for an extra hearty touch. Try this recipe tonight and experience why Boliche has remained a Cuban family tradition.

Steps:
- Step 1 Using long knife, make lengthwise slit in center of thickest end of roast to form deep pocket, about 3" long. Pierce beef all over with tip of knife. Transfer beef to large zip-top bag (or to non-reactive container with lid). Pour Mojo over beef; seal bag. Refrigerate at least 4 hours, or up to 24 hours for best results. Step 2 Heat oven to 275°F. Remove beef from refrigerator at least 30 minutes before cooking; discard marinade. Using paper towels, pat beef dry. Stuff pocket of beef with chorizo. Using kitchen twine, firmly tie beef in 1½ " intervals, perpendicular to pocket, to enclose chorizo. Sprinkle beef all over with Adobo. Step 3 Heat oil in large Dutch oven, or large oven-proof pot over medium-high heat. Add beef. Cook, flipping beef with tongs, until golden brown all over, 5-7minutes; transfer to plate. Add onions to pot; cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 3 minutes more. Pour wine and 4 cups water into pot. Bring liquid to boil, scraping up browned bits from bottom of pot with wooden spoon. Add carrots, olives, bay leaves, oregano and beef to pot. Tightly cover pot; transfer to oven. Step 4 Cook, flipping roast every hour, until beef is fork-tender, about 4 hours, adding potatoes after 3 ½ hours. Step 5 Transfer beef, potatoes, carrots and olives to platter; tightly cover with foil to keep warm. Place pot on stove over medium-high heat. Bring liquid to boil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce reduces to 2 cups, about 5 minutes. To serve, cut beef roast into ½" slices. Pour sauce over beef. Serve warm. More Cooking Tips

CUBAN PORK ROAST I
Black beans and rice are the logical accompaniment to this hearty pork roast. A salad of orange slices, red onion and arugula dressed with a tangy cilantro vinaigrette would be refreshing. If there are any leftovers, make media noches, the Cuban sandwiches that are made with Swiss cheese, ham and toasted egg bread in addition to roast pork.

Steps:
- Lay the eye of round roast on your work surface. Use the tip of a sharp boning or paring knife to cut a pocket by inserting the knife all the way through the center of the roast, beginning on the flat side. Rotate the blade 90 degrees and insert the knife in the same spot, creating an cross shape that extends through the roast. Stuff the chorizo pieces into the pocket. Using the same knife, pierce the roast all over. Set aside.
- Mash garlic and oregano with a mortar and pestle to create a paste. Rub paste all over the roast, then season with paprika, salt, and pepper. Pour the orange juice, lime juice, and lemon juice over the roast. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, or overnight. Remove the roast from the marinade, and shake off excess. Reserve marinade.
- Heat a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Place the roast in the Dutch oven and brown on all sides, about 10 minutes. Remove roast to a platter, and set aside. Stir in the onions; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Return the roast to the pot. Add the bay leaves, sherry, beef broth, and reserved marinade. Increase heat to medium-high, bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low; simmer 2 hours.
- Drop potatoes into the pot, cover, and continue to simmer until potatoes are tender and easily pierced with a fork, about 30 minutes more, adding additional beef broth as needed.
- Remove the roast and place on a platter. Cover the meat with two layers of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area for 10 minutes. Slice roast into 1/2-inch thick slices, and arrange potatoes on the platter. Spoon the remaining sauce over, and serve.

CUBAN SHREDDED BEEF(ATK)
Use a well-marbled chuck-eye roast in this recipe. When trimming the beef, don't remove all visible fat-some of it will be used in lieu of oil later in the recipe. If you don't have enough reserved fat in step 3, use vegetable oil. Vaca Frita is traditionally served with black beans and rice or fried plantains. It can also be used as a filling for sandwiches, empanadas, and even tacos.

Steps:
- Bring beef, 2 cups of water, 1 ¼ teaspoons salt, and ½ teaspoon pepper to boil in 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low, cover, gently simmer until meat is very tender, about 1 hour 45 minutes. (Check beef every 30 minutes adding water so that bottom third of beef is submerged.) While beef simmers, combine garlic, oil and cumin in bowl. Combine orange juice, lime zest, and lime juice in second bowl.
- Remove lid from skillet, increase heat to medium, and boil until water evaporates and beef starts to sizzle, 3 to 8 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer beef to rimmed baking sheet. Pour off and reserve fat from skillet. Rinse skillet clean and dry with paper towels. Place sheet of aluminum foil over beef and using meat pounder or heavy sauté pan, pound to flatten meat into about 1/8" thick pieces, discarding any large pieces of fat or connective tissue. (Some of beef should totally separate into shreds. Larger pieces that do not separate can be torn in half.).
- Heat 1 ½ teaspoons reserved fat in now empty skillet over high heat. When fat begins to sizzle add onions and ¼ teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are golden brown and charred in spots, 5 to 8 minutes. Add sherry and remaining ¼ cup water and cook until liquid is absorbed, about 2 minutes. Transfer onions to bowl. Return skillet to high heat, add 1 ½ teaspoons reserved fat and heat until it begins to sizzle. Add beef and cook, stirring frequently, until dark golden brown and crusty, 2 to 4 minutes.
- Reduce low and push beef to sides of skillet to clear center ; add garlic mixture to clearing and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant and golden brown, about 30 seconds. Remove pan from heat, add orange juice mixture and onions, and toss to combine. Season with black pepper to taste. Serve immediately with lime wedges.
