For an even more intense flavor, consider scoring the pork shoulder before marinating to allow the marinade to penetrate deeper. Don't discard the pan juices! They can be strained and used as a delicious sauce. Leftover roast pork is fantastic in Cuban sandwiches, tacos, or even shredded into salads.
