Garlic pulled pork (Paleo)

INGREDIENTS

• 1 pork shoulder, about 4 lbs;
• ½ tsp cumin;
• 1 tbsp garlic powder;
• 6 garlic cloves, peeled;
• Juice of 1 lime;
• 1 onion;
• 1 bay leaf;
• Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
   to taste;


PREPARATION

1 Preheat your oven to 250 F.

2 In a bowl, combine the lime juice with the
cumin, garlic powder and some salt and pepper
to taste.

3 Rub the spice and lime juice mixture all over the
pork.

4 Make six small incisions on the pork shoulder
and insert a garlic clove in each of them.

5 Place the sliced onion in the bottom of a roasting pan with the bay leaf and the pork shoulder
on top. Cover tightly with foil.

6 Place in the middle of the oven to roast for
about 4 hours, until the meat falls apart very easily when pulled with a fork.

7 Remove from the oven and let rest, covered, for
15 minutes before pulling out the delicious pork
and serving it with its own juices.
