Preparation
Pork Shoulder - prepare 2 days in advance:
Wash pork shoulder in cold water; pat dry. Pierce exposed meat side repeatedly with thin knife or long-tined fork - as deeply as possible to allow marinade to seep into meat; do not pierce the skin. Combine remaining ingredients in large bowl, pot, or marinader. Place pork shoulder into marinade, cover, and place in refrigerator overnight 24-48 hours. If meat is not submerged, baste with marinade every 12 hours.
Preheat oven 275 deg. Place water bath - shallow pan filled about 2/3 with water - on bottom shelf of oven; keep filled with water throughout roasting process. Place pork shoulder skin-side up on grilling rack in shallow roasting pan; pour marinade over roast - enough to completely cover the bottom of the roasting pan. Baste periodically throughout roasting process using enough marinade to keep the bottom of the pan covered. Roast for 2 hours. Remove pork shoulder from oven.
Increase oven temperature to 375 deg. Baste pork shoulder with remaining marinade and continue to roast for 1 hour. Remove from oven; wait 5 minutes and transfer to platter. Carve and serve.
