Directions:
  1. Slice the pork shoulder into 1/4"-1/2" slices and place in a bowl or gallon ziplock bag
  2. Mix the remaining ingredients except the pineapple slices and add to the meat
  3. Let marinade for at least 6 hours or up to 3 days (longer is better)
  4. Preheat oven/grill/smoker to 300° F
  5. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and stack alternating layers of pineapple and pork. You can stack them on a wooden or metal stake to keep them upright. Here is the one I use, it's ~$12 on Amazon.

  7. Remove the meat and let rest for 10 minutes
  8. Carve the pork and pineapple into thin slices
