Ingredients

  • 2.5 pounds 1 kilo asado
  • 6-8 cloves garlic
  • 1.5 cups freshly squeezed pomegranate juice
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • juice of ¼ lemon
  • salt and pepper
  • 3 sprigs thyme

Instructions

  • Marinate asado with pomegranate juice and lemon for a minimum of two hours, preferably overnight. When ready to prepare, preheat oven to maximum and place asado in a pan with the rest of the ingredients. Cover well. Cook for 15 minutes on maximum temperature and then lower temperature to 300º and cook for 3-4 hours, or until meltingly tender. Take half of the leftover juices from the pan and reduce in a saucepan until it has a thicker consistency. Garnish the meat with fresh pomegranate seeds and reduced pan juices.
