Categories     Pork

Time 6h10m

Number Of Ingredients 9

6-8 jalapeno peppers, stemmed and seeded (about 4 oz. or to taste if you don't want that much heat)
1/2 c minced garlic
1 Tbsp kosher salt
3 Tbsp sweet paprika
1/2 c dry white wine
2 Tbsp tomato paste
1/4 c olive oil
4-5 lb boneless pork butt
2 c chicken stock or low-sodium chicken broth

Steps:

  • 1. Combine the chiles, garlic, kosher salt, and paprika in a food processor and pulse until a paste is formed. Transfer the chile mixture to a large nonreactive bowl and add the wine, tomato paste and olive oil. Stir well to blend.
  • 2. Make deep slits all over the pork butt to allow the marinade to penetrate the meat. Add the pork to the bowl and turn to coat with the marinade. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight, turning occasionally.
  • 3. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and bring the meat to room temperature.
  • 4. Remove the meat from the marinade and transfer to a roasting pan. Add the chicken stock to the roasting pan to about 1 inch up the sides of the pan.
  • 5. Bake for 1 1/2 hours, turning occasionally, or until browned on all sides. Continue to add water to the roasting pan periodically as needed during the entire roasting time to keep the juices from burning on the bottom of the pan. Reduce the oven temp to 300 degrees and continue cooking, turning the meat occasionally for about 4 1/2 hours longer or until the meat is fork-tender.
  • 6. Set the meat aside to rest for about 15 minutes. Using a spoon, skim as much fat from the surface of the drippings as possible. Using 3 forks, pull the meat into serving size pieces and toss with the pan juices. Season with salt to taste and serve either hot or warm.

I'm allergic to garlic. Do you think this recipe would still be good without it?

This recipe is similar to one that my grandmother used to make. I can't wait to try it!

I'm curious about the crispy skin. How do you get it so crispy?

I'm not a big fan of pork, but I decided to give this recipe a try. I was pleasantly surprised! The pork was tender and juicy, and the garlic flavor was just right. I would definitely make this again.

This recipe was a disaster! The pork was tough and the garlic flavor was overwhelming. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

The pork was a little dry, but the flavor was good. I think I might add some more liquid next time to prevent it from drying out.

This recipe was easy to follow and the pork turned out great! I used a pork loin roast and it took about an hour and a half to cook. The garlic flavor was subtle but present, and the crispy skin was delicious. I would definitely make this again.

I've tried many roasted pork recipes, but this one is by far the best. The pork was cooked to perfection and the garlic flavor was amazing. I served it with mashed potatoes and green beans, and it was a perfect meal.

This Portuguese-style garlic roasted pork was a hit with my family! The pork was incredibly tender and juicy, and the garlic flavor was prominent without being overpowering. The crispy skin was the perfect finishing touch. I will definitely be making
