This recipe is a nod to the classic Puerto Rican staple - Pernil - minus all the added salt and MSG in the traditional seasonings used. This pork is rubbed with Culinary Genie Salt-Free Sazón Seasoning Blend and Culinary Genie Salt-Free Garlic & Herb Seasoning Blend then slow roasted to fall apart perfection. It may not be exactly like Pernil, but it's pretty darn close...and oh, so good! Contains no MSG.
Ingredients
-
1 tablespoon Salt-Free Garlic & Herb Seasoning Blend
-
1 tablespoon water
-
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
-
2 teaspoons Salt-Free Sazón Seasoning Blend
-
½-1 teaspoon sea salt, optional
-
3 pound pork shoulder Boston butt roast
-
1 small onion, cut into 8 wedges
Directions
Preheat oven to 275°F. In small microwave-safe bowl, combine Salt-Free Garlic & Herb Seasoning Blend and water. Microwave on HIGH 20 seconds. Stir; cool slightly. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil, Salt-Free Sazón Seasoning Blend and salt; Stir to combine.
Rub mixture all over roast. Set aside. In oven-proof Dutch oven or pan, heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. When hot, add roast. Sear on all sides until nicely browned, about 10 minutes. Add onion to pan while searing last side. Insert an oven-proof meat thermometer into center of roast.
Transfer pan to oven. Bake, uncovered, until internal temperature reaches 200°F on meat thermometer, about 6 hours, or until meat easily falls apart with a fork. Remove from oven; cover and let stand 20 minutes. Pull and use as desired.
Notes
Serve with rice and beans.
