Dan,
The mojo contains pineapple juice, vinegar and orange juice, along with condiments and garlic.
I use a half gallon of it and separate the liquid from the garlic and inject the entire pig. After that, half a container of salt is rubbed all over and finally, the garlic is rubbed. That marinades overnight.
The pig then cooks slowly for about 5 hours.
The smell and the taste is amazing.
When you pull a rib, you get only the bone and have to scoop up the meat that fell off.
Quite a few from CA got to taste one a couple of years ago when we did a big herf in Florida.
