Directions

1. 1
   Place all ingredients (except the pork shoulder, of course) in a mini food processor and process until smooth.
2. 2
   Cut one inch slits on the fat or skin side of the roast, place in a roasting pan and then massage the roast with the marinade, pushing some into the slits you've made. Use all of the marinade over all sides of the roast.
3. 3
   Cover the roast tightly with foil and place in the refrigerator for 6 to 24 hours (the longer, the better),
4. 4
   When ready to roast, take the pork out of the fridge about 1/2 hour early and pre-heat your oven to 325F. Add one cup of water to the roasting pan and recover the roast.
5. 5
   Roast for 3 hours, covered, and then uncover and roast for about 3 hours more or until the meat is soft and juicy, the skin is crisp, and the internal temp is at least 160F.
