Keto Baja Pork Shoulder
Keto Baja Pork Shoulder is incredibly tender and has a slight spicy kick. It's also a fantastic source of protein, making it perfect for meal prepping or freezing for future use. A fresh pork shoulder is generously seasoned with a blend of cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, minced dried onion, garlic powder, and sea salt. The shoulder is roasted for 8 hours or more until it becomes incredibly tender and falls off the bone. The succulent meat is then served with a tangy and spicy lemon-chipotle mayo. You can serve the pork shoulder over a bowl of cauliflower rice with a spicy slaw or use it as a filling for low-carb tortillas with onion, lime, and a vibrant cilantro salsa. To prepare the cilantro-lime salsa, simply combine diced white onion and chopped cilantro in equal proportions, then add lime juice and salt to taste. Leftover pork shoulder can be enjoyed in the same way the next day. After that, you can shred the shoulder thinly and sautΓ© it into a hash with other low-carb vegetables, topped with cheese for extra flavor. Alternatively, use the meat in wraps along with shredded lettuce, sliced tomatoes, cucumbers, and ranch dressing. Depending on your oven, the shoulder should cook on low heat for at least 8 hours. Choose a day when you're mostly home to cook the shoulder. Otherwise, pork shoulders are easy to cook in this manner. Just place it in the oven and let it cook until dinnertime, when it will be tender and juicy!
