Pig Powder

I am all about the Pig! This is a rub that is totally suited for pork. This seasons the meat just perfectly for tamales and tacos. I usually quadruple this recipe so I’m sure to have enough for an 8 or 9 pound pork shoulder roast.

Ingredients

• 1 tsp salt
• 2 tsp crushed red pepper
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1/2 tsp white pepper
• 1 cl garlic
• 1 tsp tarragon
• 1/2 tsp nutmeg
• 1/2 tsp ground thyme
• 1/2 tsp marjoram
• 1/2 tsp rosemary
• 1/2 tsp whole basil

Directions

Mix all together and rub onto all sides of a pork butt roast and bake at 500 degrees for 20 minutes. Tent with foil. Reduce heat to 275 and cook for 4-5 hours until tender. Cut into chunks and use juice as a dip or shred it up and make carnitas or tamales. Fantastic
