The Tradition of Cuban Pig Roasts & the Caja China
A Cuban pig roast, or lechón asado, is the centerpiece of major celebrations, from holidays to family gatherings. The pig is marinated overnight in mojo—a citrusy, garlicky marinade—and then slow-roasted to perfection.
The caja china (Spanish for "Chinese box") is a uniquely Cuban roasting method that dates back to Chinese laborers in Cuba, who developed a way to trap heat above the pig, ensuring crispy skin while keeping the meat juicy. Today, it's the gold standard for Cuban-style pig roasts!
We look forward to celebrating with you—don’t miss out on this unforgettable event!
