I have no idea how you did that, but I felt compelled to try it. I already went to the store this morning and saw a bone-in pork shoulder on sale. I just went back to pick up a pineapple, some pineapple juice, etc. Just mixed up a simple marinade with Mexican oregano, salt, chipotle pepper, cumin, garlic, onion, and a couple of bay leaves. I'll soak overnight and inject later tonight or early tomorrow morning to try and replicate what I see above.

Great idea!

Go for for it!
I understand you have a recipe, but here is the one I used for the marinade.

Well "I have a recipe," is too kind. It just looked so good I figured I'd wing it.

Damn, yours looks better @rjay. I guess I'll see what happens and report back. Depending upon the weather, I may try to start the cook late tonight or early tomorrow morning.
