Fall-Apart-Tender Slow-Roast Pork Butt image

Pork butt is a less-expensive cut, but cooking at a very low temperature ensures a tender, juicy roast, and it dissolves fat and connective tissue, This can also be made in a slow cooker set on high for 30 minutes, then turned down to low for the day, oven cooking time will vary depending on the size of your roast -- I have made this in the past, and it is very good! :)

Yield 1 roast, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pork butt (about 4 pounds)
1/4-1/3 cup Worcestershire sauce
3/4 cup light brown sugar
1 cup apple juice
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the rack slightly below the center of the oven.
  • Place the pork in a casserole that is just large enough to hold it and has a lid.
  • Sprinkle the roast on all sides with worcestershire sauce. Then press brown sugar coating on all sides of the pork. Pour the apple juice down the side of the casserole to the bottom, being sure not to drizzle it on the crusted meat. Cover tightly.
  • Place the roast in the oven and immediately turn the heat down to 200°F (95°C).
  • Roast without opening the oven door for about 5 hours, until the meat is so tender that it pulls apart easily. If the meat does not pull apart easily, cover, and return to the oven and roast 30 minutes more. Check again, roast 30 minutes more as needed.
  • Pull the meat apart and remove the bone. Stir the salt into the juices at the bottom of the pan. Serve meat in its delicious juice hot or at room temperature.

  • You can also pour off most of the juice if preffered and stir in your favorite bbq sauce after shredding. Heat through in pot on the stove over medium-low heat.
  • This should make about 12 sandwiches.

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 25

2 tablespoons onion powder
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 ½ tablespoons seasoned salt
1 ½ tablespoons ground black pepper
1 teaspoon dried marjoram
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3 pounds boneless pork shoulder, cubed
1 bunch spinach leaves, washed
¼ cup olive oil
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
¼ cup butter
1 onion, thinly sliced
2 stalks chopped celery
1 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 ½ cups beef broth
2 (28 ounce) cans stewed tomatoes
2 bay leaves
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 (15 ounce) cans butter beans, rinsed and drained
1 yellow squash, sliced
1 zucchini, sliced
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Toss together the onion powder, parsley, 1 tablespoon garlic powder, seasoned salt, 1 1/2 tablespoons black pepper, marjoram, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a large, resealable plastic bag. Add the cubed pork, toss until well coated, then seal, and refrigerate overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Line a 9x9 inch baking dish with half of the spinach leaves.
  • Pack the marinated pork into the baking dish, and cover with the remaining spinach leaves. Cover the pan with aluminum foil, and bake in the preheated oven for 3 hours, or until the pork is tender.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Whisk in the flour, and cook for 15 minutes, stirring frequently until the flour has toasted. Scrape into a heatproof dish, and set aside. Melt the butter in the pot, and stir in the onions and celery. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 10 minutes. Add the mushrooms, and cook until tender; stir the flour mixture back into the pot to coat the vegetables.
  • Pour in the beef broth, stewed tomatoes, cooked pork and spinach, bay leaves, red pepper flakes, and 1 teaspoon garlic powder. Simmer 1 1/2 hours.
  • Stir in the butter beans, yellow squash, and zucchini. Simmer 30 minutes until the vegetables are tender. Season to taste with salt and pepper before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork butt roast. Look for a roast that is at least 5 pounds, with a good amount of marbling. This will help ensure that the meat is tender and flavorful.
  • Season the roast generously. Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. You can also add other spices, such as cumin, chili powder, or oregano.
  • Sear the roast before cooking it. This will help to brown the meat and lock in the juices. You can sear the roast in a skillet over medium-high heat, or in the oven at 450 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 minutes.
  • Cook the roast slowly and low. The ideal temperature for cooking a pork butt roast is between 200 and 225 degrees Fahrenheit. This will allow the meat to cook evenly and become fall-apart tender.
  • Let the roast rest before serving. Once the roast is cooked, let it rest for at least 30 minutes before shredding and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat.

Conclusion:

Fall-apart tender pork butt roast, also known as pulled pork, is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. Whether you are making it for a special occasion or just a casual weeknight dinner, these tips will help you create a perfect pork butt roast every time.
