3. Let the meat marinade for 24 to 48 hours in the refrigerator, turning several times.
4. When ready to cook, remove the meat from the fridge at least 30 minutes before using.
5. Preheat the oven to 350°F or 180°C and melt the lard, vegetable shortening or butter in the roasting pan.
6. Remove the pork from the marinade and discard the marinade.

** if you prefer not to use ribs, just increase the amount of pork loin.
