Low-and-slow cooking is the key to transforming the humble picnic shoulder into tender, pull-apart pork you'll want to put on everything.
Ingredients
- 1 pork picnic shoulder (8–10 pounds), bone-in, skin-on
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pint Fresh to Market Tequila-Lime Seasoning
- 2 cups Fresh to Market Chicken Broth
Preparation
Preheat oven to 425°F.
Rub pork with olive oil, then coat with seasoning.
Pour broth into a Dutch oven, then place seasoned pork into the broth, cover, and place in the oven. Roast for 1 hour. Lower oven temperature to 250°F, then continue cooking for 4 hours, or until the meat is tender and falls off the bone.
Alternatively, you can cook the pork roast in a slow cooker set to high for 5 hours.
Let pork rest for 20–30 minutes, then serve or allow to cool in the liquid before refrigerating.
