Even though I love the smoked pork, it takes too long on the grill and the weather was not condusive to making it, so I settled with the crockpot method. 6 hours and it was just fine. Your photo says it came out fine. It looks beautiful.Teresa Cordero Cordellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00738980943031027746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2454805966928474735.post-11202899146843984892009-06-15T06:38:56.023+01:002009-06-15T06:38:56.023+01:00What a bummer--I hate it when something doesn'...What a bummer--I hate it when something doesn't turn out.

Rillettes are supposed to be pulled apart with a fork and they are almost swimming in fat. <br /><br />No personal experience of cooking this sort of thing - however I do noticed that modern meat cooks differently because of leaner grown animals.Bettina Douglashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16898828244863215926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2454805966928474735.post-43547512684178470362009-06-14T12:10:01.610+01:002009-06-14T12:10:01.610+01:00HH - very frustrating!

So many nice flavours in the cooking liquid and none of it translating.<br /><br />Alex - it's more of a braise than a roast, so I don't think it was too high a heat. If I had just been looking for a tender pot roast it would have been fine, but there was no way I could pull it apart with forks.Alicia Foodycathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11931796992646884249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2454805966928474735.post-39165263071506168612009-06-14T11:23:02.932+01:002009-06-14T11:23:02.932+01:00Slow cooked pork shoulder should be seriously tend...Slow cooked pork shoulder should be seriously tender. It has a good fat:meat ratio which theoretically should baste the meat as it cooks. Is it poss you roasted it too high? <br /><br />One way to keep meat, especially pork, meltingly tender is to brine it for 24 hours before hand.Just Cook Ithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17035386609851308100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2454805966928474735.post-19965207930317001172009-06-14T11:19:35.802+01:002009-06-14T11:19:35.802+01:00Oh what a shame FC!
