SLOW-ROASTED PORK SHOULDER



Slow-Roasted Pork Shoulder image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 5h45m

Yield about 6 main course servings (

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 heaping tablespoons black peppercorns
25 cloves garlic (about 2 heads), peeled
10 whole cloves
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1 bone-in pork shoulder (about 7 pounds)
Kosher salt, as needed
White distilled vinegar, as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
  • In a food processor, combine the peppercorns, garlic, and cloves and puree. While the motor is running, drizzle in the oil until a paste is formed. Using a rubber spatula, scrape the garlic paste into a small bowl.
  • Place the pork butt on a work surface and season all over generously with salt. Rub all over with the garlic paste. Place in an oven-safe roasting bag and close with a twist tie. Place in a large roasting pan, and cook until tender, about 5 hours.
  • Remove roast from the oven. Slip the oven-roasting bag off the meat and discard. Transfer the cooking liquid to a medium saucepan. Skim the fat from the cooking liquid with a ladle or de-greaser. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer to thicken the juices slightly.
  • Raise the oven to 400 degrees F. Return the pork, in the roasting pan, to the oven. Continue roasting, basting frequently with the simmering cooking liquid, until well-browned, about 30 minutes. If there is any cooking liquid left, pour it over the pork.
  • Remove pork from the oven and let it rest at room temperature for 10 minutes. With the pork drippings you may make a vinegar sauce using this formula: for every 1/2 cup of drippings, whisk with 3 tablespoons vinegar and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Either carve the pork into thin slices, or, using 2 forks, pull into small pieces. Serve with the vinegar sauce on the side.

SLOW-ROASTED PORK FOR TACOS



Slow-Roasted Pork for Tacos image

To make tacos for a crowd, you can't do better than to begin with slow-roasted pork, scented with cumin and coriander, garlic and red pepper. Use shoulder or butt meat and you won't go wrong, as the high fat content makes the meat self-basting. Slow, indirect grilling is ideal, but you don't lose much by cooking the pork in the oven, using moderate heat. Shred and serve on warm tortillas.

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 2h30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

10 cloves garlic, peeled
2 pounds pork shoulder, preferably boneless and in one piece
1/2 teaspoon peppercorns
1 teaspoon fresh oregano (or use dried Mexican oregano)
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 inch cinnamon stick
1 teaspoon coriander seed
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Sliver 4 cloves of the garlic and use a thin-bladed knife to poke holes all over the pork; insert garlic slivers in holes.
  • Combine the peppercorns, oregano, cumin, cinnamon and coriander in a small skillet and turn the heat to medium. Toast, shaking the pan occasionally, until the mixture is fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Combine the toasted spices, salt and remaining garlic in the container of a small food processor or blender. Turn on the machine and gradually add the orange and lemon juice until you have a smooth purée. Rub all over the pork; let the pork sit at room temperature for up to 2 hours or in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
  • At least 2 hours before you plan to eat, turn the oven to 300 degrees or prepare a charcoal or gas grill to cook over low indirect heat. Put the pork in a roasting pan in the oven or directly on the grill rack; if you're grilling, cover the grill. Cook, checking occasionally and basting with the pan juices if you're roasting (add water to bottom of pan if mixture dries out), until pork is brown and very, very tender, at least 2 hours. Shred or slice pork and use hot or at room temperature (pork can be refrigerated for up to 2 days).

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork butt. Look for a pork butt that is well-marbled with fat. This will help keep the meat moist and flavorful during the long cooking process.
  • Season the pork butt generously. Use a combination of salt, pepper, and your favorite spices. Be sure to rub the seasonings into the meat so that they penetrate deeply.
  • Cook the pork butt low and slow. The ideal temperature for cooking pork butt is between 225 and 250 degrees Fahrenheit. This will allow the meat to cook evenly and develop a tender, fall-apart texture.
  • Baste the pork butt occasionally. This will help keep the meat moist and prevent it from drying out. You can use a variety of liquids for basting, such as apple cider, chicken broth, or melted butter.
  • Let the pork butt rest before serving. Once the pork butt is cooked, let it rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.

Conclusion:

Slow-roasted pork butt is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. By following these tips, you can create a pork butt that is tender, flavorful, and fall-apart delicious. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or coleslaw, and enjoy!
