Ingredients
- 2 pounds pork shoulder
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon dried Mexican oregano
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 8 cups pineapple juice separated
- 7 whole dried guajillo chiles soaked
- 10 cloves garlic

- 2 (15 ounce cans) black beans drained and mashed
- 3 cups pineapple chunks fresh or canned
- 1/4 cup Mexican crema

Instructions
- Remove stems from dried guajillos and shake out excess seeds. Pour hot water over them to cover and allow to soak at least 30 minutes to an hour. Remove chiles from water and purée with garlic, habanero pepper and 1 cup pineapple juice. Set aside.
