Slow Roasted Pork Butt Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• In a food processor, combine the peppercorns, garlic, and cloves and puree. While the motor is running, drizzle in the oil until a paste is formed. Using a rubber spatula, scrape the garlic paste into a small bowl.
• Place the pork butt on a work surface and season all over generously with salt. Rub all over with the garlic paste. Place in an oven-safe roasting bag and close with a twist tie. Place in a large roasting pan, and cook until tender, about 5 hours.
• Remove roast from the oven. Slip the oven-roasting bag off the meat and discard. Transfer the cooking liquid to a medium saucepan. Skim the fat from the cooking liquid with a ladle or de-greaser. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer to thicken the juices slightly.
• Raise the oven to 400 degrees F. Return the pork, in the roasting pan, to the oven. Continue roasting, basting frequently with the simmering cooking liquid, until well-browned, about 30 minutes. If there is any cooking liquid left, pour it over the pork.
• Remove pork from the oven and let it rest at room temperature for 10 minutes. With the pork drippings you may make a vinegar sauce using this formula: for every 1/2 cup of drippings, whisk with 3 tablespoons vinegar and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Either carve the pork into thin slices, or, using 2 forks, pull into small pieces. Serve with the vinegar sauce on the side.

Steps:

• 1. Combine all your spices, set aside. Trim excess fat from the pork leaving a nice layer on the top of the roast for self basting while in the oven.
• 2. Rub your spice blend all over the roast; cover with saran wrap and refrigerate overnight, or at least 12 hours.
• 3. Slice onion into thick slices and put in the bottom of your pan, along with stalks (including leaves) of celery.
• 4. Place in preheated 325 degree oven and cover roaster with lid, or with aluminum foil.
• 5. Roast for 8 to 9 hours. Check for doneness with meat thermometer. When pork reached 200 degrees I basted with barbecue sauce and returned to oven without lid for about 30 more minutes (or until you have a nice browned finish on the roast.)
• 6. You can serve slices at this point, or shred the pork to get pulled pork. Add sauce of your choice and enjoy in slices or on buns.

Steps:

• Make small slits all over the roast then insert a whole garlic clove into each slit (this is only optional).
• Place the roast in a greased casserole dish with a lid.
• Sprinkle the roast on all sides with Worcestershire sauce.
• Let sit at room temperature for 1-1/2 hours.
• After 1-1/2 hours spoon any Worcestershire sauce (if any) back on the roast that has accumulated on the bottom of the casserole.
• Using hands press the brown sugar well into the meat on all sides making certain to adhear the sugar to the meat.
• Pour the apple juice into the bottom of the casserole.
• Cover tightly.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F for 15 minutes.
• Place the roast in the oven and immediately reduce the temperature down to 200 degrees F.
• Roast for about 4 hours or until the meat is falling-apart tender (cooking time will vary depending on the size of the roast).
• Stir the salt and black pepper into the juice (do not omit the salt!).
• Slice meat as desired.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Place the pork shoulder on a cutting board or baking sheet. Whisk together the brown sugar, ginger, paprika, black pepper, salt and garlic in a small bowl. Rub the spice mixture all over the pork butt.
• Pour the beer and orange juice into a large Dutch oven and add the pork. Cook, uncovered, basting with any juices that accumulate in the pan, until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 200 degrees F and shreds easily, 6 to 7 hours. Let the pork rest for 10 to 15 minutes, then shred. Serve on brioche buns.
