Can You Slow Cook Pork Shoulder Too Long?
Yes, you can slow cook pork shoulder too long. Overcooking can result in the meat becoming dry, tough and less flavourful. It is recommended to cook pork shoulder until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) and then allow it to rest for 10-15 minutes before serving to lock in the juices and ensure a moist and tender meat. It is also important to monitor the cooking time and temperature to avoid overcooking.
