Our Tips
Chef's tips for making this recipe
Why pork shoulder for slow roasting: Pork shoulder is ideal for slow cooking because its fat melts gradually, making the meat extremely tender and flavorful. The connective tissue breaks down over the long cooking time, resulting in meat that practically falls apart.
Pro tip: Let the roast rest at room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking for more even results. After cooking, tent with foil and rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing or pulling.
For crispy skin: If you want crispy crackling, uncover the roast for the last 30-45 minutes and increase oven temperature to 425°F (220°C).
