Chilean Pork Roast

In a small bowl, combine merkén, salt and pepper. Place pork roast in a roasting pan lined with parchment paper. Drizzle olive oil all over pork, then season generously with merkén spice mixture, rubbing it in really well. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.

Preheat oven to 350°. Remove plastic wrap from pork. Cover pan with aluminum foil and roast until pork is tender and starting to fall apart, about 2 hours. Once pork is tender, remove aluminum foil and continue to roast, uncovered, until a beautiful crust has formed all over the meat, about 15 minutes. Remove from oven; let stand 15 minutes. Pull pork apart into pieces and arrange on a platter. Drizzle with pan juices.
