Cooking a pork shoulder blade is easier than cooking a pork shank, which is more challenging. Plus, the roast does not require long, slow cooking. You just need a grill or a smoker to get started. You also don’t need to season the roast. It needs to marinate in a mixture of maple syrup, soy sauce, and honey. Next, you’ll need to cook the roast on a hot grill. Start by brushing the meat with oil. Then, rub the shoulder blade roast with black pepper and kosher salt. Next, use the grill to sear the roast, which will make the pork more flavorful. After that, you’ll brush the roast with the sweet and spicy barbecue sauce. To finish, simply let the roast sit in a warm oven until ready to serve.
Roasting basics
For a small meal like this, you’ll want to start out with a pork shoulder blade. Shoulder blades come from the shoulder and have the same shape as a flat blade steak. When cooking, the outside of the meat can be exposed to high heat and dry air. This allows the inside of the meat to remain moist. For this small roast, the ideal cooking temperature is 325-350 degrees Fahrenheit. If cooking on a stovetop, use a meat thermometer to monitor the temperature of the roast. The best way to cook a pork shoulder blade is by roasting it. As the roast cooks, the outside of the roast will brown and caramelize. It will also shrink in size, so it won’t be too large to handle. This roast will take about 40-45 minutes to fully cook.
How to roast
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit
Pat dry the pork and place in a roasting pan
Roast the pork for approximately 1 hour
A pork shoulder blade roast can be cooked in a number of ways. Because this meat is fatty, it will have a lot of flavor if you cook it for a long time at a high temperature. The ideal way to cook a pork shoulder blade roast is to cook it for 1 hour in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. This will allow the meat to take on the flavors of the surrounding ingredients and to melt in your mouth. A good tip is to make sure the meat has been cooked all the way through. If there are still pieces that are white or raw inside, then the meat is not cooked enough and you should give it another 5-10 minutes. A pork shoulder blade roast can be cooked in a variety of ways. You can cook it in the oven, on a grill, or even in a pressure cooker. All of these methods will work just fine.
Finishing
There are a number of ways to cook pork. For example, you can simply roast it. This is a common method of cooking in the U.S. This means you cut the pork into a thin, flat roast, place it in a pan and roast it at a high temperature. This makes it tender and flavorful. Or you can make a braised pork shoulder. This is essentially a braised stew. In this case, you cut the pork into a large piece, and braise it until it’s tender. It will have a smoky flavor. Or you can make a pot roast. This is typically made by cutting the pork into large cubes and cooking it in a pot with vegetables and seasonings. Pot roasts are usually served with mashed potatoes and gravy, although you can also serve it with other side dishes. This recipe is for a pot roast.
Letting it rest
The idea behind cooking a pork shoulder blade roast is that the blade itself is tender, and the meat around it (the shoulder) is somewhat tougher.
