INGREDIENTS
- 3-5 lbs bone-in pork shoulder
- 1 cup water
- 4 tbsp liquid smoke
- 1 tsp seasoned salt
- 2 tsp salt
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp fresh ground black pepper
- 1 large sweet onion, sliced (Mayan or Walla Walla work great)

PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 350F.
Using a coated cast iron dutch oven, heat the oil to medium-high on the stovetop. Sear each side of the pork shoulder.
Remove the dutch oven from stovetop and add 1 cup water. Pour liquid smoke over the shoulder, 1 tbsp at a time to ensure coverage. Season with salt and spices. Add the potatoes, carrots, onion and celery around the shoulder.
Cover, place in oven, and cook for 2.5 to 3 hours until the inner temperature is at least 165F.
Slice and serve with roasted veggies or shred for pulled pork sandwiches with your favorite BBQ sauce.
