Oven Jerk Pork

For the Pork:

  • 4 pounds pork shoulder, boneless, trimmed of excess fat
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Jerk Marinade:
    • In a blender or food processor, combine all the jerk marinade ingredients. Blend until you achieve a smooth, well-combined mixture.
  2. Marinate the Pork:
    • Place the pork shoulder in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish.
    • Pour the jerk marinade over the pork, ensuring it’s evenly coated. Massage the marinade into the meat.
    • Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight, allowing the flavors to penetrate the pork.
  3. Preheat the Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
  4. Prepare the Pork for Roasting:
    • Remove the marinated pork from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes.
    • Remove excess marinade from the pork, leaving a thin coating.
    • Season the pork with salt and black pepper according to your taste.
