Pernil Aka Roast Pork Shoulder Recipe

	Suzalleogram / All my dishes 6 months, 3 weeks ago Delicious Spanish-style pulled pork. I'm not sure how authentic this is, but it's how I'm making it today in my usual "take a little direction from several different recipes" style of cooking. Prep time includes overnight marinating.

Ingredients

3-5 lb pork shoulder- If using larger roast, increase ingredients accordingly

2 packets Goya Sazon con culantro y achiote

Adobo seasoning with or without pimiento, to taste

2-3 cloves garlic, crushed

1/4 cup olive or corn oil

1 tsp oregano

1 tsp fresh ground pepper

aluminum foil

Directions

PREPARATION THE NIGHT BEFORE- Rinse meat in cold water and pat dry

With a sharp knife stab meat several times to make 3-4" slits.

Go ahead, stab it good now- I also cut right underneath the fat layer of the roast to season later

Season with Adobo all over outside of meat, to your liking

In a small bowl/mixing cup mix oil, 1 packet of Sazon, oregano, pepper, and mashed garlic, until a chunky thick liquid forms

Insert about 1-2 tsp of this mixture per hole you previously stabbed, and rub some underneath fat layer

Sprinkle rest of the Sazon over entire roast

Put in a Ziplock bag or covered bowl and refrigerate overnight

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THE NEXT MORNING-Preheat oven to 400

Take out roast and let sit for at least 20 minutes, while oven is heating

Put roast fat side up on top of rack in roasting pan

Bake at 400 for 30 minutes, to brown meat

Turn down to 250 degrees, cover with foil, and cook for 6 1/2 hours or until done, check after 4 hours, meat should fall apart pretty easily

Let cool a bit so you don't burn

Shred pork with two forks

Enjoy!

Thank you thank you...I love pork shoulder, have them at every family function...especially this way. My favorite is the crunchy fat on the outside. How do you get it crunchy after covering it?
