Brown Sugar and Honey Smoked Picnic Pork Roast

Yield:
12-15 servings

Ingredients:

  1. 1 (7 pound) medium smoked pork picnic shoulder (bone in or out)
  2. 2 cups granulated sugar
  3. 1 cup honey or brown sugar
  4. 1 can (6 ounce) frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
  5. 1 teaspoon whole cloves
  6. Water (enough to fully cover pork)
Directions:

Make crosswise slits, 1/2- inch apart halfway through meat to where knife touches bone. Place meat in deep bowl and barely cover with water. Stir in sugar and soak at least 2 days in the refrigerator; drain.

Place meat in roasting pan lined with enough foil to wrap the meat completely.

Pour honey (or brown sugar) and orange juice all over the pork.

Stick cloves all over the meat; wrap tightly with foil.

Bake at 200 degrees F for 6 to 7 hours or until done, unwrapping and basting occasionally with glaze mixture. Unwrap and bake at 450 degrees F about 15 m inutes for slightly crisp skin.
