Slow Roasted Bone In Boston Butt





Make this Boston Butt recipe when you have the time to slow roast it in the oven. The lemon and herbs flavor the meat while the low temperature makes for a succulent and tender pork dish.

How to Make It

Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°. Rub 1 lemon half on all sides of pork roast, squeezing juice from lemon. Stir together oregano, salt, and pepper; rub on roast.

Step 2
Place roast on a lightly greased rack in a roasting pan. Separate garlic cloves (do not peel), and place around roast. Drizzle olive oil over roast and garlic cloves.

Step 3
Squeeze juice from remaining 1 1/2 lemons into a bowl. Stir together juice and chicken broth; pour into roasting pan.

Step 4
Bake at 350° for 3 1/2 - 5 hours, until fork tender, or desired tenderness.  (I like to do 5 hours)
Shred pork into large pieces using two forks, if desired. Garnish, if desired.
