Ingredients
  

  • 128 ounce bone-in, skin-on pork shoulder room temperature
  • 3 ½ tablespoon salt
  • 2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions
 

  • Wash the pork thoroughly and pat dry. Let sit on the countertop for 2–3 hours to come to room temperature.
  • Preheat oven to 250F. Mix all of the spices together in a bowl.
  • Starting skin-side down, apply the salt rub generously all over the pork. Once the bottom is done, flip it over and place on a foil-lined baking tray with a rack. Apply the rub on all sides and on top of the pork.
  • Place in the oven and cook for 8–10 hours, depending on the size of the roast. It needs to reach an internal temperature of about 190F.
  • Remove the pork from the oven and cover with foil. Allow to rest for 15 minutes. Turn up the oven to 500F.
  • After resting the meat, remove the foil tent and place the pork back into the oven. Rotate it every 5 minutes to allow for even cooking of the skin. Smoke may come out of the oven during this process, as the fat that dripped off during roasting begins to burn. Open the window or, alternatively, remove this fat prior to placing the pork in the oven.
  • Remove the pork from the oven and let rest for 15–20 minutes before slicing/digging in.
  • Serve and enjoy!
