Smoked Pork Picnic Shoulder

7 lb {3178 g}

ham feeds 6, no leftovers.

Place shoulder with netting in large stock pot cover with water,bring to a boil (L10)

Gently boil (L3 Power boil element).

Change water after boiling for 30 minutes.

Simmer for another 30 minutes then change water again.

Doing this twice makes the ham less salty.

Keep second pot of water on the boil so that the change of water does not take too long to come up to the boil again.

It takes about 15-20 minutes to bring another large pot of water to a full boil.

Add vegetables with 1 hour or so left to go, cut into large chunks.

Extract roast and let rest 10 minutes.

Remove netting, shred some ham, slice the other. Serve.

Note	2016-02-28 Desalting twice creates less salty ham. Use large pot to boil and transfer to minimize reboil time.
