I was talking with my friend Chris about perfect meals for entertaining , and we went though the usual suspects: lasagnas , chili , tenderloins , and then he mentioned to me that his favorite go-to entertaining dish was a pork butt or shoulder. We talked about the best way to cook a pork shoulder roast: basically just letting it slow cook in the oven for ages at a very low temperature so that it practically falls apart.
Chris told me that long ago a chef has explained to him that meat likes to be cooked at around the temperature that it reached when it is done. You can also make this recipe and others like it with a pork butt roast or Boston Butt pork roast, which are actually also from the shoulder area, a little further up, but essentially a similar cut of meat.
When you slow cook pork shoulder in the oven, boneless or bone-in, you have a lot of flexibility, which is a delightful thing when entertaining. So you can literally plunk it on the table whenever everyone is ready to eat. And even though this recipe calls for boneless pork shoulder, which is a bit easier to cut, you can use bone-in pork shoulder which will cook in about the same amount of time. Some people like the fat on the top, which kind of bastes the pork as it cooks, but then you have less crusty surface.
The best part? This is free time you can spend reading, dancing, sleeping, cleaning a closet, saving kittens from trees. A super tender slow cooked marinated pork shoulder roast recipe that is amazing on its own, and also can be used in so many ways. You can leave the roast in the very low oven for another hour or two or even three with no repercussions. The pork is roasted uncovered so that it gets a wonderful crusty brown exterior, while the inside becomes fall-apart tender.
Make sure to let it rest for a bit so that the fibers can relax a bit, and the juices re-group. If your roast is smaller than 6 pounds, you can still use the recipe fully successfully, just shorten the cooking time slightly. A larger pork roast still starts with a short burst of high heat roasting, then is cooked low and slow for a longer amount of time. Again, you want the meat to be falling apart tender.
