Roasted Pork Butt

I found this pork butt on sale and I thought, I did a post a couple of months ago on the difference between baking and roasting. I could take that concept to another level, so I thought, I’ll give it a try!  And it came out great!

Here’s How to Do it:

Start by rubbing all sides of the roast butt with the salt, pepper, garlic and sage. Place it on a rack and roast, uncovered at 450° for about 35 to 40 minutes, or until the outside is beginning to form a crust.

Turn the heat down to 325° and continue cooking for about 2 to 3 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 150° to 160° –

Remove from the oven and allow to rest for 3 to 5 minutes before slicing. I used the leftovers from this pork butt roast to make a delicious pork pot pie!
