Pork shoulder is a marbled cut and is quite versatile; it can be smoked, roasted whole, or cut up for stewing.  However it’s cooked, pork shoulder typically comes out tender and flavorful.  Here are some ideas for preparing and serving pork shoulder roast!

If you prefer to cook your roast in the oven, this 5-star Simple Roasted Pork Shoulder recipe is as basic as you can get.  Pork roast can also be braised in the oven — try this Braised Pork Shoulder from Martha Stewart.  If the roast has the skin on, you can use it for these Roasted Baby Potatoes with Cracklings and Chives.  I like the idea of not wasting any part of the roast!

Here’s a yummy-looking recipe for Southern Pulled Pork.  The author says “this simple recipe starts out on the stove and ends up in the slow-cooker.  Add your favorite BBQ sauce and eat plain or on a bun!”

This recipe for Barbacoa Beef (and copycat Chipotle burritos!) can also be made with pork shoulder and still turns out delicious!

If you want to stew your pork roast, here’s an amazing recipe to try: Pork Stew in Green Salsa.  We’ll be having this for dinner once or twice before summer is here!
