This is a wonderful pork shoulder recipe. My daughter, who is a chef, told me to add it to my recipe book. I added the whole can of chicken stock, the whole can of green chilies. I didn't have the pearl onions so I added green onions instead. It smelled so good cooking I couln't wait until dinner time. I served it with mashed potatoes and the gravy from the roast. Great recipe!
