• Mash garlic into paste in a mortar and pestle or pilon. Transfer to a bowl; mix in salt, 1 tablespoon oil, oregano, black pepper, adobo seasoning, and vinegar.
• Lift skin off the pork to 1-inch from the narrow part of the bone. Make 3/4-inch slits all over the pork with a sharp knife. Stuff seasoned garlic paste into the slits. Pull skin back over to cover the pork.
• Mix remaining 1/2 teaspoon oil and sazon seasoning together in a small bowl. Rub over the skin of the pork.
• Transfer pork to a large roasting pan. Pour in beer. Cover with aluminum foil, sealing well.
• Roast in the preheated oven until slightly pink in the center, about 3 hours.
• Increase oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Uncover pork and continue roasting until skin is golden brown and crispy, about 2 1/2 hours. Remove from oven and let stand for 10 minutes before carving.

Steps:

• In a food processor add green pepper, onion, and cilantro. Pour in oil and mix well. Cook's Note: Can keep in the refrigerator for up to 10 days.
• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
• Make at least 12-slits in pork with the tip of a very sharp knife. Put 1 clove of garlic in each slit.
• In a small bowl, mix together the sazon and adobo seasonings. Add 1/4-cup sofrito and stir together. Rub over entire pork shoulder.
• Place pork in large roasting pan, wrap with foil and cook for 3 hours. Remove the foil and crank oven up to 400 degrees F and let cook additional 20 minutes until desired crispness.

Steps:

• Mix sazon seasoning, olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, and oregano together in a small bowl.
• Rinse roast and pat dry. Separate the fat from the meat with a sharp knife, starting at the wide end and going to the narrow end; don't cut it off all the way.
• Season the inside of the fat a little bit. Make very deep slits all over the meat and rub seasoning all over, making sure it goes into the slits. Pull the fat back up and over the meat. Wrap roast with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 24 hours.
• When ready to cook, remove roast from refrigerator. Unwrap and place in a deep roasting pan. Let sit for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 30 minutes. During this 30 minutes the roast will reach room temperature (total of 1 hour out of the refrigerator).
• Place roast in the preheated oven and cook for 1 hour. Reduce heat to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C); cook roast until meat is tender and can be easily pulled apart with a fork, about 6 more hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Rub roast well on all sides with liquid smoke.
• Combine salt, garlic powder and pepper in a bowl and mix well.
• Add 1 Tbs of the above mixture to the seasoned salt and sprinkle this mixture on all sides of roast---You may not need to use it all, use your own judgement.
• Place roast in a large roasting pan or dutch oven---add the onion, water (pour around roast, not over it) and bay leaves.
• Cover, place in oven and cook for 2 1/2- 3 hours, or until internal temperature of meat is 170 degrees F.
• Remove from oven and pan-- let roast cool for a few minutes.
• Slice meat or shred as for pulled pork (I usually do half sliced and half pulled).
• Serve on bread or buns with your favorite BBQ sauce or coat bread or buns with mayonnaise.

Steps:

• In a food processor, combine the first eight ingredients. Cover and process until combined. Pour into a large resealable plastic bag; add the pork. Seal bag and turn to coat. Refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight., Drain and discard marinade. Place roast on a rack in a roasting pan; pour 2 cups water into pan. , Bake, uncovered, at 450° for 1 hour. Reduce heat to 400°. Bake 1-1/2 to 2 hours longer or until meat is tender, adding more water to the pan as needed. Let stand for 15 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 240C/220C fan/gas 9. Remove any packaging from the pork, retaining the string, and pat dry with kitchen paper - you want the skin to be as dry as possible. Score deep cuts into the skin in a diamond pattern using a sharp knife (you want to cut into the fat). If the skin is already scored, make sure each cut is dry and can be easily opened. Rub the oil into the skin, rubbing it well into each cut, then sprinkle the salt over in an even layer, rubbing this into the cuts, too.
• Scatter the onion slices over the base of a large roasting tin and sit the pork joint on top. Roast for 20-30 mins, or until the skin starts to blister and bubble. Put the kettle on to boil.
• Pour half a kettle of boiling water around the joint to cover the base of the tin, ensuring it doesn't drip onto the skin. Reduce the oven temperature to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Roast for another 2 hrs 30 mins, or until the meat under the skin is very tender when pressed. There's a lot of fat in pork shoulder, so cooking at a low temperature this way ensures the meat doesn't dry out - if needed, it can cook for up to 3 hrs.
• Turn the oven back up to 220C/220C fan/gas 7 and continue to roast the pork for 20-25 mins until the skin is very crisp and has started to harden - it should feel brittle when tapped with a knife. If needed, cook for 10 mins more to achieve this. Remove the pork from the oven and rest for 20 mins in the tin, loosely covering with foil. Remove the crackling in large pieces, then break into smaller chunks. Carve the meat and serve alongside the crackling and your favourite sides.

Steps:

• 1. Place the 8 pounds pork shoulder into a roasting pan with the fatty side up. Puncture the surface of the meat with a fork. Rub the paste into the punctures of the meat.
• 2. Mix together in a small bowl, blend minced garlic, salt, pepper, oregano, adobo seasoning and olive oil.
• 3. Cover with plastic and store in the refrigerator overnight.
• 4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.Remove the plastic wrap from the pork shoulder and replace it with aluminum foil.
• 5. Cook for 3 1/2 to 5 hours, checking the meat every 30 minutes after the 3 1/2 hour mark.
• 6. Remove the foil when the pork is nearly done and allow to cook for another 20-30 minutes to become crispy on the surface.

Steps:

• SOFRITO: In a food processor add green pepper, onion and cilantro. Pour in oil and mix well. Set aside 2 T. for Spanish Rice. Can keep in refrigerator for up to 10 days. ROAST: Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Cut off 2 slices (about 1/4 c.) of pork and set aside for Spanish Rice. Make slits in pork roast, and put 1 clove of garlic in each slit (maybe 6-8 slits and garlic). In small bowl, mix together the sazon and adobo seasonings. Add 1/4 c. sofrito and stir together. Rub over entire pork shoulder. Place roast in large roasting pan, wrap with foil and cook for 3 hours. Remove the foil and crank oven up to 400 degrees and let cook additional 20 minutes until desired crispness. SPAINISH RICE: In large saucepan on high heat, saute onions and reserved pork in the butter until lightly browned. Add sazon, adobo, rice and water and reserved sofrito. Do not stir at any point! Cook about 10 minutes on high or until the water begins to evaporate to almost the level of the rice. Cover with lid, reduce heat to low and let cook until water is totally evaporated and rice is tender.
