👨‍🍳 निर्देश

1. 1

   Score the skin of the pork shoulder deeply and make several incisions into the meat. Place the pork in a large bowl.

   💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Deep scoring helps the skin crisp up.
2. 2

   In a food processor, combine crushed garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper. Pour the lime juice over the pork and rub it all over. Then, rub the garlic paste into the incisions and all over the pork. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 12 to 24 hours.

   ⏱️ 12-24 hours
3. 3

   Pour 2 bottles of beer over the pork, cover, and return to the refrigerator to marinate for an additional 12 to 24 hours. Turn the pork over every 8-12 hours for even marination.

   ⏱️ 12-24 hours
4. 4

   Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Place the pork, skin-side up, in a large roasting pan with the marinade.

   💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Ensure the skin is facing upwards for optimal crisping.
5. 5

   Melt 1 stick of butter in a small saucepan. Add 1 teaspoon of achiote and mix. Brush this achiote butter all over the pork skin. Bake for 30 minutes.

   ⏱️ 30 minutes
6. 6

   Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C). Cook for 1.5 hours, basting the meat with pan sauces every 30 minutes to prevent drying.

   ⏱️ 1.5 hours
7. 7

   Melt the remaining 1/2 stick of butter in a small saucepan. Mix in the remaining bottle of beer and 1 tablespoon of achiote. Heat gently (do not boil). Use this mixture to baste the pork as needed.

   💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Basting keeps the meat moist and the skin flavorful.
8. 8

   Continue cooking for another 2.5 hours, basting every 30 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).

   ⏱️ 2.5 hours
9. 9

   Before removing from the oven, turn the broiler on for a few minutes to crisp the skin further. Let rest before slicing.

   💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Watch carefully to prevent burning the skin.
