LOW & SLOW PORK VERDE

Low & Slow Pork Verde image

My family loves this versatile pork dish. We like to have it over a serving of cheesy grits, but it also goes well with rice or potatoes. Leftovers make an excellent starter for white chili. -Val Ruble, Ava, Missouri

ROAST PORK BUTT WITH SALSA VERDE

Roast Pork Butt With Salsa Verde image

This dish defines the phrase "it's worth the wait." The cooking method here is low and slow, with a well-seasoned pork butt roasted for 9 to 10 hours. Inspired by a "Pork Dinner" family meal at Mozza in Los Angeles, where a 300-pound Berkshire pig was butchered for the dinner, it makes for a perfect big Sunday feast. Just don't forget the salsa after all that time.
