Ingredients
Scale
2 pounds pork shoulder
1/2 cup orange juice
1/4 cup lime juice
1/4 cup olive oil
6 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon oregano
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the orange juice, lime juice, olive oil, garlic, oregano, cumin, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
Place the pork shoulder in a resealable bag and pour the marinade over the meat. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C).
Remove the pork from the marinade and place it in a roasting pan. Reserve the marinade.
Cover the pork with foil and roast for 3 to 4 hours, or until tender.
During the last hour, uncovered, baste the meat with the reserved marinade.
Once done, let the pork rest for 15 minutes before slicing.
