Citrusy Pork Shoulder


Bad Thai food inspired this dish.  I have two huge pork shoulders and I needed to have some pork with Thai flavors before I go back to work.  This is a super bold flavor, it has to be cooked long and slow.  It is a punch of citrus, backed with spice, and long lasting tartness.  So strong.

The Citrusy Pork Shoulder Rub
In a mortar and pestle, combine 1/2t of paprika, cayenne pepper, cumin, granulated garlic, nutmeg, ginger, and black pepper, 1t of salt, and oregano, and 1T of dehydrated onions.  Mash together.  Slowly add 3T of apple cider vinegar.  Add a touch of olive oil. 

Cover your pork shoulder with this, and rotisseriefor 2.55hr or, cover in foil and bake in coals or bake in oven, this is a strong dish.  Cover with green onions and lime juice.  It is fatty and delicious.
