Perfectly Tender Pork Roast

It's Simple folks, Low and Slow is the Way to Go.
I've tried all types of herb infused and spice rubs
and found most seem to mask the taste of the pork.
So here is a recipe for roasting a pork shoulder
that tastes like pork with little other added flavors.
This simple recipe takes a 5 pound pork shoulder
and about 10 hours to roast at a temp of 250 F.
The meat is very juicy and Pork Tender.

Ingredients:
1 (5 pound) fresh pork shoulder
2 teaspoons table salt
2 teaspoons ground black pepper
2 cups water

Directions:
Rinse pork with cold water and pat dry.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Place pork on a metal rack in roasting pan,
and pour water in the bottom of pan.
Roast or bake covered in a 250 degree F.oven
for at least 10 hours until the internaltemperature
of the pork shoulder reaches about 200 degrees F.
Remove and let sit 30 minutes before serving.
