    What makes it different
    Hard to ruin
    The shoulder is full of collagen and fat, and both want time rather than precision. An hour long is not a disaster here the way it would be on a loin.
    Where the breed shows
    A lean hog's shoulder dries out if you push it. A Mangalitsa's has enough fat to carry it well past the point where a commodity roast gives up.
    More than pulled pork
    Pulled pork is the obvious answer. But sliced thick while it is still at 145°F it eats like a pot roast, and that is the version most people have never had.
    This is the roast to start with if you have not cooked Mangalitsa before. It is inexpensive for what it is, it feeds a crowd, and it is very hard to get wrong.
    FROM THE FARM
    We raise Mangalitsa here in Monticello, Kentucky, and have every animal cut at a USDA-inspected plant down the road. They grow slower than a commodity hog and they put that time into fat rather than lean, which is the whole point of the breed.
    How to cook it
    1
    Season it the day before if you can. A shoulder is thick, and salt needs time to get anywhere.
    2
    275°F, uncovered, fat side up. Do not add liquid — the roast makes plenty of its own.
    3
    When the outside is as dark as you want it, wrap it and keep going. Pull at 195 to 205°F, when a probe meets no resistance anywhere.
    4
    Rest it wrapped for a full half hour before you open it. This is where the juice goes back into the meat.
    What you're getting
    One Mangalitsa shoulder roast.
    Good for pulled pork or thick slices, depending on where you stop.
    Mangalitsa raised on our farm in Monticello, Kentucky, and cut at a USDA-inspected plant.
    Weights are averages. Every package is cut by hand, so no two are exactly alike.
