Butterflied a bone in shoulder, trimmed half the fat, seasoned all around and rolled it up and tied it.  White wine in the pan, in direct at 225 for 21 hrs.  This is in my top 3 of items ever made.   Wow

    This was a sort of on the fly type deal


    Ingredients are fresh crushed garlic, evoo, a little fennel seed, salt, pepper, parsley,  oregano, a touch of nutmeg believe it or not and red wine vinegar plus some red chili flakes. We made a paste Thats it.   

    My apologies, @thetrim no process pics because we had no idea this would turn out so incredible


    The keys are  low heat...225 and to coat the butterflied shoulder on all sides and let it sit overnite in fridge

    It pulled apart like a shoulder should. Cooked to IT of 197, cut the string off and ooohhhwee it was succulent.   

    Drip pan had white wine and the pan drippings were poured over the unshredded version

    Broccoli rabe sauteed in olive oil, garlic salt and red chili flakes.  Sliced provolone on sale at Safeway for $1.  Artisan buns tho...
