Roberts Boston Butt Roast Recipes

FALL APART BOSTON BUTT PORK ROAST RECIPE

Steps:

• *** After a generous rub all over the entire roast, cover with plastic wrap and put it in the fridge to marinate overnight! ***
• Variations: You can rub olive oil over your roast before adding spices to give it a bit more moisture, or use liquid smoke!
• Put a wire rack at the bottom of your large roasting pan, then place the Boston Butt Roast FAT SIDE UP on the rack, in the pan, and set on the counter.
• Preheat oven to 450° f, and let the roast come up to room temperature while the oven is preheating. Place roast UNCOVERED into your high temperature oven, and roast for a half hour. Then, turn it down to a 250° f oven temperature for the rest of the day.
• Turn the heat down to 250°f and let it roast uncovered till the exterior develops a "bark" or becomes dry and crispy, about 8 hours for a medium sized roast (about 6 pounds). Make sure the outside is good and CRUSTY... Most people think the "bark" or exterior of the roast is the best part, because that's where are the spices are!
• Then carefully remove roast from oven and completely wrap it in 2 layers of heavy duty aluminum foil.
• Return Boston Butt to the oven and roast at 250° till the internal temperature (at the deepest part of roast) reaches 200° f.
