BBQ pork shoulder served with sweet potato mash and fresh parsley

BBQ Pork Shoulder with Sweet Potato Mash

BBQ pork shoulder is a beloved grilling dish that offers an unforgettable experience for lovers of smoky and juicy flavors. The creamy texture and slight sweetness of the sweet potato mash perfectly complement the spicy BBQ meat. Imagine the BBQ-sauced pork shoulder roasting in the oven, the smoky aromas filling the kitchen, and the sweet potatoes gently steaming in the pot. The secret to perfect BBQ pork shoulder is a longer marinating time and regular basting with BBQ sauce during baking to keep the meat crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. You can make the sweet potato mash extra creamy by adding a little cream and seasoning it with nutmeg or fresh herbs to taste.

    Preparation Steps

    1

    Slice the pork shoulder into medium-thick slices. Season with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika, then rub in the crushed garlic.

    2

    Coat the meat with BBQ sauce and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

    3

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Place the pork in a baking dish, drizzle with olive oil, and bake for 40 minutes, turning occasionally and basting with more BBQ sauce.

    4

    While the pork is baking, prepare the sweet potato mash. Peel the sweet potatoes, dice them, and cook in salted water until tender (about 15 minutes).

    5

    Drain the sweet potatoes and transfer them to a large bowl. Add the butter, sour cream, and nutmeg, then mash until smooth using an immersion blender or potato masher.

    6

    Season the sweet potato mash with salt to taste, then mix thoroughly to achieve a creamy consistency.

    7

    Serve the juicy BBQ pork shoulder with the warm sweet potato mash, and sprinkle with fresh, chopped parsley.
