Roast Pork Shoulder with Leek Sauce

5 lb. pork butt shoulder roast

olive oil

salt and pepper

6 leeks (or bunch green onions)

garlic clove or 1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/2 lemon

Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.

Rub roast with olive oil, sprinkle on salt and pepper.

Place roast in a pan and cook at 500 degrees F 30 minutes.

Lower temperature to 250 degrees F and cook 8 to 12 hours, covered.

A half-hour before you serve the pork, remove from oven.

Let cool a few minutes. Pull meat apart.

Drizzle leek oil sauce on pork before serving.

Leek or  Green Onion Sauce

Clean leeks or onions.
 Cut off root bottoms.
 Chop very finely, place in small bowl.

Pour in just enough olive oil to cover.
 Add a squeeze of lemon juice and if you are using green onions, a dash of garlic powder or a chopped fresh garlic clove. (Leeks taste a little garlicky themselves)

Let sit for 30 minutes so oil absorbs flavor.

A half-hour before you serve the pork, remove from oven.

Let cool a few minutes. Pull meat apart.
