Pasture-Raised Pork · Shoulder
A whole afternoon of pulled pork.
Six pounds of lower shoulder. This is the size you cook when the whole family is coming, and the leftovers are half the point.

What makes it different
The same cut, in the size that feeds a crowd.
A picnic roast is the lower half of the shoulder. Six pounds of it pulls down to somewhere near four pounds of finished meat — a dozen sandwiches and then some.
Big roasts cook slower than the arithmetic says.
Heat travels from the outside in, so six pounds is not simply a fifth longer than five. Allow twelve to fourteen hours and start it earlier than you think you need to.
Leftovers are half the reason.
Pulled pork freezes well in its own juice, and it reheats better than almost anything else you can put in the freezer.
A roast this size is a commitment, so start it the night before if you are eating in the afternoon — once it is done it can rest for two hours without suffering for it.
From the farm
We pack the full-size picnic for people cooking for a houseful. If you want a smaller one, we cut those too.
How to cook it
01
Give it room. A six-pound roast needs a pan it is not crammed into, so the heat gets all the way around it.
02
250°F, fat side up. Twelve to fourteen hours. Put it on the night before if you are eating in the afternoon.
03
Wrap at 165°F. The bark is set by then, and wrapping carries it through the stall without drying it out.
04
200°F, then rest. An hour at the very least, two is better. Pull it while it is still hot enough to steam.
