Pork Marinade
Pork Marinade
It’s very easy to multiply this recipe to make larger amounts for big pork shoulders. You’ll need about 5 quarts for a whole hog, and 2 or 3 for a shoulder, depending on how large it is. You can store the marinade in your refrigerator for up to a year, but make sure you don’t contaminate it, and always discard any used marinade—you can’t keep it.
