Drunken Jerk Pork
(with jerk potatoes and bbq sauce)
Ingredients
1 Berkshire pork shoulder (4-5lb)
3 tablespoons Walkerswood hot jerk seasoning - I use the hot one but you can use mild
2 cups beer
1 onion quartered
Bbq sauce
6 oz tomato paste
1 ½ cup liquid from cooking pork shoulder (More if needed)
½ cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon Molasses
2 teaspoons soy sauce
White pepper
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
Directions
Score fat on the pork shoulder
Coat the mea, except the fat, with Woodwards jerk seasoning.
Put instant pot on sauté and then sauté the fat side first, then brown all sides of pork shoulder
When all sides are browned, add onion quarters
Add beer
Put lid on and set to 1 hr 10 mins on pressure cook - leave pressure to release naturally at the end
Save the juice from the roast to make bbq sauce.
I wanted to crisp the fat, so I sprinkled salt on it and cooked it at 400 degrees for about 40 mins - I then used the fat that rendered out to roast my potatoes in
To make BBQ Sauce
Put all the ingredients for the bbq sauce in a pan and bring to a simmer.
Reduce until thick
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Jerk Potatoes
I always cook my potatoes in the instant pot, but you just need boiled potatoes, so do them however you prefer using some reserved jerk juice.
Peel the potatoes and put them in the instant pot with a cup of leftover pork jerk juice
Steam for 2 mins
Strain and toss to scuff the edges
Sprinkle with salt
Then roast in the fat that you poured off the roast.
