'''Cochinita pibil''', '''puerco pibil''' or '''Mexican pit-pork''' is a traditional [[Mexican]] slow-roasted pork dish from the Yucatán.
Preparation of traditional cochinita or puerco pibil involves [[marinating]] the [[meat]] in strongly acidic [[citrus juice]], colouring it with [[annatto seed]], and [[roasting]] the [[meat]] while it is wrapped in banana leaf. [[Tin foil]] now provides a modern substitute.
Traditionally, cochinita pibil was buried in a pit with a fire at the bottom to [[Roast|roast]] it. The Mayan word "pibil" means "buried".
