- 1/4 cups Brown Sugar
- 3 pounds Pork Shoulder Roast
- 1 Tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil

- Place pork back into the refrigerator and allow to absorb flavors for at least 1 hour or overnight.
- Preheat a Dutch oven and add olive oil over medium high heat.
- Add pork roast and brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Watch carefully because the sugar browns fast.
- If using a crockpot, remove roast to the crockpot, deglaze the pan with the water and vinegar, scrape all the little bits off the bottom, and add to the crockpot.
- If leaving in the pan, just add the water and vinegar and scrape the bits off the bottom and cover the pan.
- Bring to a boil and turn to low.
- The meat will not be fully covered in liquid.
- Leave roast to cook for 4-5 hours on the stovetop or a minimum of 8 hours on Low in the crockpot.

- Reserve 1 cup of juice and pour off excess liquid.
