This is my favorite way to roast pork. The simple seasonings and slow roasting deliver a delicious shredded pork to eat on a bun, in a burrito or straight outta the pan! This is from Emeril Lagasse.
Ingredients:
5 lbs pork shoulder, bone-in, untrimmed
salt
fresh ground black pepper
1 cup creole seasoning
1/2 cup olive oil
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2. Season all sides of the pork with salt and pepper.
3. Combine the Creole seasoning and olive oil in a small bowl to make a paste.
4. Rub the paste all over the pork.
5. Place the pork, fat side up on a rack in a roasting pan.
6. Roast the pork for 30 minutes.
7. Reduce the heat to 250 degrees F and continue to cook for 6 -1/2 hours.
8. Remove from the oven and cool completely.
9. Shred all of the meat using 2 forks.
