Servings: persons

1 cup coarsely chopped cilantro leaves
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1/2 cup fresh lime juice
9 garlic cloves, finely chopped
3 tablespoons finely chopped oregano
1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt
Pepper
1 5-pound, boneless pork shoulder roast with fat cap
Lime wedges, for serving

1
In a large, sturdy resealable plastic bag, combine the cilantro, orange and lime juices, garlic, oregano, olive oil, 2 tablespoons of kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper. Add the pork shoulder, seal the bag and turn to coat. Transfer the bag to a large baking dish and refrigerate the pork overnight, turning the bag once or twice.
2
Remove the pork from the marinade and scrape off the garlic and herbs; discard the marinade. Season the pork all over with salt and pepper and transfer to a large enameled cast-iron casserole. Let stand at room temperature for 1 hour.
3
Preheat the oven to 400u00b0. Roast the pork fat side up for 1 hour, until lightly browned. Reduce the oven temperature to 300u00b0 and roast for 4 hours longer, until the pork is very tender and the fat cap is crispy; transfer to a carving board and let rest for 30 minutes. Chop the fat cap into bite-size pieces. Carve, shred or pull apart the pork and garnish with the crispy cap pieces. Serve with lime wedges.
