Ingredients (for 6–8 servings):
-
1 smoked picnic pork shoulder with bone (about 3.5 kg / 7.7 lbs)
-
5 whole cloves
-
1 onion, chopped
-
250 ml (1 cup) La Pimenterie chipotle maple syrup
-
30 ml (2 tbsp) mustard powder
-
Salt and pepper, to taste
Preparation steps:
-
Preheat the oven to 160 °C (325 °F).
-
Place the pork shoulder in a large roasting pan. Insert the cloves into the top of the meat. Scatter the chopped onion around it.
-
In a bowl, mix the chipotle maple syrup, mustard, salt, and pepper. Pour this mixture over the pork.
-
Cover the roasting pan with aluminum foil and bake for 3 hours.
-
Uncover and baste the meat with the pan juices. Continue cooking uncovered for 30–45 minutes, basting occasionally to glaze the pork.

Let rest for 15 minutes before slicing. Serve with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a warm salad.
