• Clean the pork shoulder: Place it in a large bowl and add the sour orange juice, vinegar and salt. Rub each piece of meat with the cut side of the limes and orange juice mixture, then let soak for 5 minutes. Rinse with cold water and set aside.
• Add the garlic, scallions, Scotch bonnet peppers, red onions, yellow onions, parsley, green bell peppers, red bell peppers and thyme in a food processor until blended into a paste. Season the meat with the paste and let marinate for 10 minutes.
• In a stock pot, add the meat and 3 cups water. Cover and boil for 35 minutes. Drain all the water.

HAITIAN PORK GRIOT

Steps:

• Quarter the chile and remove the seeds and membranes. Finely chop one quarter; leave the rest in whole pieces. Handle pieces carefully, preferably while wearing gloves; they are extremely hot.
• Transfer quartered and chopped chiles to a large Dutch oven or heavy pot with a lid. Add onion, bell peppers, parsley, salt, pepper, thyme and garlic. Stir in vinegar, orange juice, lemon juice, lime juice and Worcestershire sauce. Mix in pork. Cover pot and refrigerate overnight.
• The next day, remove from refrigerator at least 1 hour and no more than 3 hours before cooking. Heat oven to 325 degrees. Place pot over high heat and bring liquid to a simmer; cover and put pot in oven. Cook, stirring occasionally, until meat is very tender, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
• Using a slotted spoon, remove meat from pot, allowing all excess liquid to drip back into the pot and picking any bits of vegetables or herbs off the meat. Transfer meat to a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle meat with 2 tablespoons oil and salt to taste, and toss gently to coat.
• Strain braising liquid, discarding any solids. Return sauce to pot and simmer over high heat until reduced by about half, about 25 to 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the broiler. Broil meat, tossing occasionally, until meat is evenly browned, about 5 to 10 minutes. You want it nicely browned in spots but not so brown that it dries out.
• To serve, drizzle meat with additional oil and top with sauce, parsley and thyme leaves. Serve on a bed of rice with pikliz on the side.
