Magic Pork Shoulder
I married a vegetarian and didn’t eat meat for a good long while. We had a first kid, then a second, moved to the country, and got our first serious dining room table—in rapid succession. House with a big table and kids begets dozens of parties for holidays, birthdays, and merry making. For a long time, I served vegetarian entrées to everyone who came, no matter what they ate at home. But one day I slow-braised a big old pork shoulder for the meat-eaters.The house filled and people raved. So, I did it again.
