Preparation

  1. Step 1

    In a Dutch oven, combine the pork, garlic, vinegar and peppercorns and add enough water to cover. Bring liquid to a boil over moderately high heat, skimming the froth as it rises to the surface. Simmer, partially covered, for about three hours, or until very tender.

  2. Step 2

    Meanwhile, prepare the sauce by combining the vinegar, pepper and salt in a covered container, shaking vigorously to blend.

  3. Step 3

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

  4. Step 4

    Remove the pork from the Dutch oven, discarding the liquid. Place pork on the rack of a roasting pan, and baste thoroughly with the spicy sauce. Baste every 15 minutes or so, turning the meat after 1½ hours. It should roast for a total of about three hours with constant basting, so it does not dry out. The fat should be crisp.

  5. Step 5

    Remove pork from the oven, chop very finely with a large knife, and sauce again. The mixture should be moist, but not soupy. Serve warm, with cole slaw and white bread.

I tried that recipe but I put my own twist to it I added pink Hawaiian salt ketchup cloves brown sugar &oregano then I smoked it. The sauce is going to be Tangy.add a little sugar sweet and spicy but if that's u want it so be it.
