cpolkI had a thawed pork shoulder and a broken oven.
So i got out a bowl and made a spice rub. I didn't measure anything. I just dumped in a whomp of garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, mantreal steak spice, paprika, sage, and terragon for kicks.
then I browned and seared the houlder in a frying pan on all sides. I used a slightly higher than medium heat to do this.
I dumped the leftover rub in a dutch oven and splashed in some worchestershire, apple juice, apple cider vinegar, a splash of sauterne cooking wine, some crushed garlic, and a bit of water to stretch it out. I might have an inch of liquid in the pan, probably.
I put the roast in fat-side down, covered, and simmered for an hour before testing with a meat thermometer. I think it took three hours.
and it turned out great.
oh yes, and

check THAT out. I said I was considering adding another 10,000 words to my goal for the month, and I kicked the crap out of THAT wordcount goal too.
This might possibly be my most prolific month of writing ever. let's see how far I get.
