This recipe elevates a cheap cut of meat into something people can't get enough of. It only takes a few minutes to prepare but gives you leftovers for days. Try to find a local farm and avoid the factory farmed pig if you can get it near you it really makes a difference in the flavor and is worth the extra money.

Don't even think of cooking this unless you have a very strong ventilation fan that vents outdoors, and even then expect your kitchen to get full of smoke.

i recently got access to a stove with a convection oven and instead of 500° for 20 minutes rotating every 5 like in the recipe you can do 550° for 15 minutes in convection mode without opening the oven and receive identical results with far less smoke. Still more smoke than is reasonable though i have to take a shower every time i make it. The people love it though there isn't a better way to make pork shoulder that I have tried.

Pairs really well with macaroni salad.

I am in Virginia. My Lidl has good traffic but isn't crowded, so I don't come home cranky like I do from the big American grocery stores. I primarily go for the meat section (and the fun random household goods section) but it has enough of my other regular products that I can usually keep my other store visits down to once a month. It feels like I'm shopping while on holiday in Europe. And let's not forget they stock wayyyy better chocolate.
