Cuban boliche is a tender slow cooked beef roast stuffed with chorizo and olives. The citrus marinade brings out some wonderful flavors.
Share:
Ingredients
- 4 lbs beef roast top round
- ½ lb chorizo
- 8 olives sliced, stuffed
- 1 orange fresh squeezed juice
- ½ lemon fresh squeezed juice
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp cumin
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp oregano
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 3 Roma tomato diced
- 1 onion medium, diced
- 4 garlic minced, cloves
- 8 cilantro tied, sprigs
- 2 bay leaf
- 3 cups water
- 2 Tbsp tomato paste
Instructions
- Place meat in a resealable bag and add the orange juice, lemon juice and salt. Marinate 8-12 hours. Discard marinade when done.
- In a small bowl place salt, pepper, cumin, and oregano.
- Insert knife front to back and make an incision across the front.
- Stuff with chorizo and olives.
- Sprinkle with spice mixture.
- Insert skewers (top to bottom) to hold filling in place.
- Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven and add the meat. Brown on all sides.
- Turn heat to medium and add the tomatoes, onions,garlic, cilantro, bay leaves, water, and tomato paste.
- Cover and cook on low for about 4 hours, turning every 15 minutes or so. Every time you turn the meat pour the juice over it to keep the meat hydrated.
- I like to serve this dish with rice, beans and sweet plantains.
Notes
- When cooking, if you notice that the liquid is evaporating, add more water. A good rule of thumb is one cup of water per pound of meat
