How to Make Pork Butt Roast Caribbean

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. Using a sharp knife, cut several small slits all over the pork butt.
  3. In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons ground oregano, 1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper, 1 tablespoon flour and 2 cloves of minced garlic.
  4. Rub the mixture thoroughly all over the pork butt.
  5. In a food processor or blender, puree the remaining 4 cloves garlic, 1 medium onion (chopped), 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 tablespoon ground allspice.
  6. Spread the garlic-onion puree evenly over the pork butt, ensuring complete coverage.
  7. Cover the roast tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 8-12 hours.
  8. Place the pork butt, fat side up, on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Add 1 cup of water to the bottom of the pan.
  9. Roast for approximately 3 1/2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 190-195°F (88-91°C) and the pork is easily shredded.
  10. Let the pork rest for at least 15 minutes before shredding and serving. Enjoy!
