1. For the marinade for the pork, either blend everything in a blender or use a mortar and pestle as i have here.

Step 2

2. Take your pork and score the flesh side of it and season with salt.

5. The next day, preheat the oven to 125**°**c or 250**°**f and cook the pork for 6-7 hours or until fork-tender. Once the pork is cooked, remove it from the pot and set aside to rest.

6. While it’s resting, reduce the leftover marinade in the pot to a thick consistency but just make sure you check it every few minutes that it’s not too salty.
