Ingredients
2 kg pork shoulder or pork butt
1 tbsp SIDS SALT & PEPPER to taste
¾ cup orange juice, freshly squeezed
½ cup lime juice, freshly squeezed
Zest of 1 orange
Zest of 1 lime
½ cup olive oil
8 cloves garlic, chopped finely
2 tsp dried oregano
½ tsp SIDS CRAZY LEMON
2 tsp ground cumin
¼ cup chopped coriander (lightly packed)
Directions
Using a paring knife, make a few slits all over the surface of the pork. (see Note 1)
Place the pork roast in the slow cooker and add SIDS SALT & PEPPER, SIDS CRAZY LEMON and the rest of the ingredients. Make sure the pork gets coated with the marinade.
Cover and cook on HIGH for 5-6 hours or on LOW for 8 until tender.
At this point, the pork is fully cooked and can be served with the cooking juices or you can make a quick sauce. (see Note 2)
Preheat the oven to 200°C. To crisp up the top, carefully remove the pork from the slow cooker and place it onto an aluminum foil lined baking tray. Bake in oven for about 15-20 minutes until nicely browned.
Remove from the oven to rest for 10 minutes before serving. You will be able to shred the meat with a couple of forks. Yes - it will be that tender.
Serve with the remaining juices from the slow cooker or sauce. (See Note 2)
