VARIATIONS: Make our homemade pot roast seasoning, or use any salted seasoning blend. Boneless shoulder is fine; adjust cooking time accordingly.
TIP: Cook the roast to your desired tenderness. For a sliceable roast remove at 140 degrees, tent with foil and let sit 20 minutes before slicing. For a fall apart roast, continue cooking until you can pull apart. For pulled pork, cook until you can shred the meat easily with two forks.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS: Serve over mashed potatoes, riced cauliflower, or egg noodles. Garnish with sour cream, chopped scallions, or parsley.
