Steps:
- Bring pork to room temperature by removing it from refrigerator 1 to 2 hours before cooking.
- Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until hot. Add the onions, cover pan, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook until light brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the sage and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the onions cease throwing off water, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat, allow to cool on plate.
- Peel back the pork skin, and spread a good amount of the fennel spice and add the onions directly on the fat layer. Fold the skin back over the onions and tie closed with kitchen string. Season well all over with the remaining fennel spice.
- Arrange the meat on a rack in a casserole pan lined with foil, drizzle with more olive oil and cook until the meat is very tender, about 8 hours. It is ready when it pulls away easily if picked at with a pair of tongs. It is often easiest to cook the meat overnight, or put it in the oven in the morning and let it cook all day. It does not need to be attended.
- Put the fennel seeds, coriander seeds, and peppercorns in a heavy pan over medium heat. Watch carefully, tossing frequently so the seeds toast evenly. When light brown and fragrant, pour the seeds onto a plate to cool. They must be cool before grinding, or they will gum up the blades.
- Pour the seeds into a blender and add the salt. Blend to a fine powder, shaking the blender occasionally to redistribute the seeds. Store in a tightly sealed glass jar in a cool, dry place, or freeze.

Steps:
- Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan over medium heat until hot; add the onions and a pinch of salt and pepper; reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for about 1 minute; add the sage and cook until the onions cease throwing off water, about 3 minutes; add the water, cover, and cook until the onions are very tender, about 10 minutes; uncover and saute until the onions are very soft and the pan is dry again, about 2 minutes; season well with salt and pepper.
- Preheat the oven to 275 degrees fahrenheit; peel back the pork skin and spread the onions directly on the fat layer; fold the skin back over the onions and tie closed with kitchen string (I didn't do this - just patted everything into place); season well all over with the fennel spice.
- Arrange the meat on a rack in a roasting pan and cook until the meat is very tender, 6 to 8 hours; it is ready when it pulls away easily if picked at with a pair of tongs; it is often easiest to cook the meat overnight, or put it in the oven in the morning and let it cook all day; it does not need to be attended.
Tips:
- Choose the right cut of pork: A pork shoulder, also known as a pork butt, is the best cut for this recipe. It's a fatty, flavorful cut of meat that will become tender and juicy when roasted slowly.
- Season the pork generously: Rub the pork with a mixture of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as smoked paprika, cumin, or oregano.
- Roast the pork slowly: Cook the pork at a low temperature (250°F) for several hours, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. This will allow the meat to cook evenly and develop a rich flavor.
- Rest the pork before serving: Let the pork rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
This recipe for Forever Roasted Pork is an easy and delicious way to cook a flavorful and tender pork roast. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a casual weeknight meal. Serve the pork with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or your favorite sides.
