Method

In a blender, combine achiote paste, garlic, orange juice, lime juice, cumin, oregano, black pepper, salt, and vegetable oil. Blend until smooth.

Coat the pork with the marinade, ensuring it's well covered. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight for best flavor.

Preheat oven to 160°C (320°F). Place marinated pork in a baking dish, cover tightly with foil, and cook for 2.5 to 3 hours until the pork is tender and easily shredded.

Remove pork from oven and let rest for 10 minutes. Shred the meat with forks.

Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave.

Fill each tortilla with shredded Cochinita Pibil, top with black beans and chopped cilantro.

Serve with lime wedges on the side.
