Place all the ingredients for the sausage (pork chop, salt, agrio de naranja, oregano, pepper, and garlic) in the food processor. Pulse until meat is minced. Divide into quarters and shape into sausages about 1" [2.5 cm] in diameter.
2. Rest
Place the sausage in a container with a tight-fitting lid and let it rest overnight in the fridge.If you want to preserve it for longer, freeze individually wrapped in wax paper or parchment paper.
Pork longaniza contains between 50% to 25% pork fat - this does not work with lean cuts. The more fat, the juicier. I used pork chops because they are easy to find and because they already have a lot of fat. However, it will not be as juicy as regular supermarket longaniza if cooked too long.
