Recipes Meat and Poultry Pork Pork Shoulder Recipes Roasted Pork Shoulder with Pomegranate Sauce 4.3 (23) 22 Reviews 4 Photos Just created this tonight and it's definitely a keeper! The Hubby and I can't wait to try it again, next time on the grill; the smoky flavors imparted by cooking over the coals will complement the sauce nicely. It's a lovely way to serve an otherwise inexpensive piece of meat. Recipe by The Magpie Updated on November 16, 2022 Save Saved!

Season the pork roast with garlic, kosher salt, and pepper. Place in a roasting pan. Bake the roast for 1 hour in the preheated oven. While the roast is baking, combine the pomegranate seeds and water in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes, until the pomegranate seeds have broken down and released their juices. Press through a strainer to get as much juice as possible. You should have about 3/4 cup of juice. Pour the juice from the pomegranate into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Simmer over medium heat until reduced by half. Remove from the heat and mix in the balsamic vinegar, sugar, and cinnamon. After the roast has been in the oven for 45 minutes, baste it with pomegranate sauce, using a brush to apply it to the top and sides. Continue to roast the pork, basting every 10 minutes, until the internal temperature has reached 180 degrees F (80 degrees C), about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven, tent with foil, and allow to rest for 20 minutes before carving and serving.
