Recipe Preparation
  • Pork shoulder
  • Beer (enough to partially cover the meat)
  • 3 tsp black pepper
  • 3 tsp salt
  • Bay leaves
  • BBQ sauce (as needed)
Recipe Instructions
1
Rinse the pork shoulder and place it in a dish. Pour in beer until the meat is partially covered. Season with salt, black peppercorns, and bay leaves. Refrigerate overnight to marinate thoroughly.
2
Remove the pork shoulder, drain excess beer, and pat dry with paper towels.
3
Preheat the oven to 280°F (140°C).
4
Heat a little oil in a cast-iron skillet or pan, then sear the pork shoulder on all sides until browned to lock in the juices.
5
Insert the probe of a ThermoProTempSpike Plus into the thickest part of the pork shoulder. Transfer the seared meat into a baking dish and place it in the preheated oven.
6
Slow roast until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) as shown on the TempSpike Plus, then remove from the oven.
7
Brush a layer of barbecue sauce evenly over the pork shoulder (you can brush 2 layers for stronger flavor).
8
Increase the oven temperature to 360°F (180°C).
9
Return the pork shoulder to the oven and continue roasting until the sauce caramelizes and forms a beautiful glaze.
