• Step 1

  Season the pork shoulder with Jacobsen Salt and pepper.

  Ingredients

  • 7 Pound bone-in pork shoulder

  • 3 Tablespoon Jacobsen Salt Co. Pure Kosher Sea Salt

  • As Needed Ground black pepper

• Step 2

  Place a banana leaf on your work surface. Lay the pork shoulder in the center of it, and draw up the ends as if you were wrapping a gift. Lay the second banana leaf at right angles to the first and draw up the ends to enclose the meat. Wrap the entire package tightly in aluminum foil. Refrigerate overnight.

  Place the wrapped pork directly on the grill grate and cook until the pork is falling-apart-tender, 5 to 6 hours, or until it has reached an internal temperature of 190 degrees F.
