Servings: 2

Ingredients

Tomato (1, sliced)
Lettuce (4 leaves)
Mayonnaise (2 tablespoons)
Mustard (2 tablespoons)
Pickles (4, sliced)
Buns (2, split)
Dried rosemary (1 teaspoon)
Dried thyme (1 teaspoon)
Dried oregano (1 teaspoon)
Onion powder (1 teaspoon)
Garlic powder (1 teaspoon)
Black pepper (1 teaspoon)
Salt (1 teaspoon)
Pork shoulder (1 pound)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
Prepare the spice rub by combining the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, dried thyme, and dried rosemary in a small bowl.
Apply the rub generously onto the pork shoulder, making sure it's evenly coated.
Place the seasoned pork shoulder on a baking tray and roast in the preheated oven for about 2 hours, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Remove the pork shoulder from the oven and let it rest for about 10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a moist and flavorful roast.
While the pork rests, toast the buns until they're golden and crispy.
In a separate bowl, prepare the mustard-mayo sauce by combining equal parts of mustard and mayonnaise.
Spread the mustard-mayo sauce on the lower half of each toasted bun.
Layer the roast pork slices, followed by the pickles, lettuce, and tomato slices.
Cap it off with the top half of the bun and serve immediately. Enjoy your homemade classic roast pork sandwich!
