Question: how many minutes per pound to cook a pork shoulder?
Answer: Allow the meat to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking. Preheat the oven to 350 and cook roast for 2 hours at 350 and 3 and 1/2 hours at 325 degrees F. Roast the pork for 35 minutes per pound, uncovered, until the skin is crispy-brown.
