Mojo Pulled Pork Shoulder


Two forks are all you need.  Easy, no smoker needed.
Mojo Pulled Pork just got better.  This recipe is so easy.  Okay, so it might take a while to cook, but low and slow is best.  I went to Costco and purchased a ton of pork shoulder.  I added this delicious marinade sauce to this beautiful chunk of meat.  Now, I have pork for the entire week.  Make your favorite Cuban sandwiches or top on mashed potatoes with homemade gravy.  Isn't Taco Tuesday coming up?  Well, get your juices flowing.

Ingredients:
8 lbs pork shoulder
2 cups la lechonera marinade sauce

Directions:
1.  Add pork to a large roasting pan.  Trim off large pieces of excess fat.  Divide chunks of pork into individual pieces (approx. the size of two softballs, or half of a basketball).  Season meat throughout with salt and pepper.  Pour marinade over top of chunks of pork.  Cover tightly with heavy-duty aluminum foil.  Roast in the oven at 250 degrees for 8-10 hours.  Baste the meat every few hours.
2.  Remove pan from the oven.  Place the meat on a large cutting board.  Grab two forks and shred the meat.

Note:  Use leftover juices to make the perfect Salsa de Carne or gravy.
Meat may also be cooked in a smoker or pressure cooker, according to manufacturing directions.
