Steps

1

Clean the pork leg thoroughly, place it in a baking dish, and pierce it with a fork or knife to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat. Apply the juice of the sour orange.
2

Start by adding garlic, salt, pepper, and oregano to the sauté. Mix everything and add about 1/2 cup of orange and pineapple juice. Marinate for a couple of hours before roasting.
3

Place the apple and pineapple on the pork leg and put it in the oven at a temperature of 300 to 350°F for 5 to 6 hours. Check periodically and gradually apply the remaining orange and pineapple juice until done.
4

Let it rest in its juices for half an hour before serving.
