EASY Pulled Pork in the Oven
I made this pulled pork and it’s SO easy and wildly delicious! I got the recipe years ago from one of my girlfriend’s and I’ve been making it ever since! I used a Boston But Roast and the prep takes about 5 minutes. Pop it in the oven and 4 hours later you have the juiciest moistest pork that shreds like butter! I serve with rice on day 1 and the next day I turn it into a pulled pork sandwich with some BBQ sauce! YOU MUST TRY!

Tips & Tricks:
- Serve with Rice: Here is my basic white rice recipe: (I used jasmine rice)
- to a sauce pan add 2 cups of water, 1-2 tbsp. of butter, 1 tsp. of Better Than Bouillon (chicken base), heavy pinch of salt. Then bring it to a boil.
- once it’s boiling add 1 cup of white rice. I used jasmine but medium or long grain white rice works perfectly too.
- cover with a tight fitting lid and lower the heat down to a 2. (on a scale of 1-10)
- leave alone for about 2–25 minutes
- uncover, fluff up, and let sit for about 5-10 minutes
- Serve and enjoy!
- Seasoning: The seasoning makes this dish! Here are links to the two most important seasonings:
- Adobo: https://amzn.to/3rcKi6Y
- Sazon: https://amzn.to/3ieewlU
- Tin Foil: The key to this dish is covering the baking dish TIGHT! NO AIR gets through! I usually double up on the tin foil and keep it CLOSED tight!
- Cookware: Use a baking dish. I use a Pyrex: https://amzn.to/36NZM7P

Pulled Pork
Ingredients:
- 4lb Boston Butt Roast (bone in)
- 10 cloves of garlic sliced
- 2-3 tbsp. of olive oil
- 1 lemon
- 2 onions sliced
- 2 tbsp. of Adobo seasoning
- 1 packet of Sazon
- black pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp. of garlic powder
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 300
- place the butt roast in a baking dish with the fattiest side up
- cut slits all around the Butt roast
- stuff the garlic slices in the slits and all in the natural crevices
- rub the roast with olive oil and squeeze the lemon over the roast and massage in
- season the roast and massage all of the olive oil, lemon, and seasoning into the roast really well
- place the lemon slices you squeezed in the baking dish beside the roast
- scatter the onions slices all around and over the roast
- cover the dish VERY tightly with tin foil (no air gets in)
- bake for 4 hours at 300
- baste every hour and make sure you cover tightly again each time
- once it’s done shred with 2 forks
- this will yield a lot of delicious juice in the baking dish
- pour the juice over the white rice and serve
- The next day if you have leftovers mix the pulled pork with BBQ sauce and make BBQ sandwiches
