ROAST PORK SHOULDER
Steps:
- Make the rub by combining the ingredients in a small bowl or use a mortar and pestle to make it into a paste.
- Prep the pork shoulder by patting it dry on all sides with paper towels and trim excess fat. With a very sharp knife, score the fat side with a 1/2" crosshatch pattern going all the way through the fat down to the skin.
- Apply the rub marinade on all sides and either ideally cover and refrigerate overnight or let it sit out for a few hours to marinate.
- Preheat the oven to a low 275° F / 135° C.
- Place the roast on a double foil-lined rimmed baking sheet or roasting pan. You can also use a wire rack to set the roast on so the air circulates all the way around.
- When the internal temperature of the roast reaches 175° F, remove it from the oven. Use an instant-read probe thermometer to verify.
- Rest uncovered for 30 minutes or longer. The temperature will rise another 5 to 10 degrees.
- Optional sear for even crispier skin: If your roast didn't get super crispy, you can sear it in a hot oven for a short period of time. After resting the pork shoulder for 30 minutes or longer, preheat your oven to 450° F. Place the roast back in the oven to sear. This will require rotating every 5 minutes or so until it is seared on all sides: 10 to 20 minutes total depending on your oven.
- Serve it by slicing or shredding. Serve warm.

Steps:
- Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 250°F. Sprinkle pork roast all over with 1 teaspoon coarse salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, and fennel seeds, patting to adhere. Heat olive oil in heavy large roasting pan over medium-high heat. Place pork, fat side down, in pan. Cook until brown on all sides and on ends, holding pork upright with tongs when necessary, about 12 minutes. Transfer pork to baking sheet and cool completely, about 20 minutes.
- Combine 8 cups coarse salt, 2/3 cup black pepper, allspice, and juniper berries in same roasting pan. Stir to blend. Add 1 cup water and stir to moisten. Push 2/3 to 3/4 of salt mixture to 1 side of pan, spreading remaining salt in long wide strip (about size of roast) as base for pork. Place pork, bone side down, on salt base. Pack remaining salt over entire roast, enclosing completely.
- Roast pork in salt crust until instantread thermometer inserted straight down into pork from top center registers 165°F, about 2 1/2 hours.
- Transfer roasting pan to work surface. Let pork rest 10 to 20 minutes. Remove all salt from around pork. Transfer pork to cutting board, brushing off any remaining salt. Position roast so that bones are vertical. Cut between bones and meat to remove bone slab in 1 piece.
- Place bone slab on platter. Arrange roast atop bones in original position. Carve roast and serve.
- Sold in the spice aisle of most supermarkets.
- What to drink:
- With the pork, pour a Côtes du Rhône. We like the Domaine Rouge-Bleu 2007 "Mistral" (France, $18). Its blackberry and earthy flavors and anise notes complement the meat deliciously.

DAD'S BASIC MOIST PORK ROAST
This is the best and most basic way to ensure a juicy, perfectly-cooked pork roast every time. This recipe really requires a good thermometer -- either a $10 instant-read type or, even better, the type that pierces the meat and stays in place while connected to an outside-the-oven monitor. If you can swing that, then try your favorite marinade or rub on this recipe. Use your imagination on the rubs and marinades, but ensure you bring your roast directly from the fridge to the roasting pan -- Dad's recipe works best that way.

PEPPER CRUSTED PORK ROAST
This is another of my mom's recipes, and we love it! It's very easy but impressive. The pepper does make the crust spicy, but you can scrape it off before eating if you don't like hot food.
