| 1. On the stove, preheat a large pot to high heat. | 2. In a small bowl combine the garlic, cumin, oregano, salt, pepper, and cloves with a fork. | 3. Dry off the shoulder with a towel and rub the outside of the pork shoulder with the spice mixture. | 4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the stock, apple cider vinegar, and jalapeno. | 5. Once the pot is hot enough for water to bead, add the lard and allow it to melt. | 6. Place the pork shoulder in the hot pot and sear it on all sides. | 7. Immediately pour the stock mixture into the pot and allow everything to come to a boil. | 8. Cover the pot with a lid and turn heat down to a simmer over low-medium heat. | 9. The meat will be done when it easily falls apart and shreds with a fork (for a 2lb. roast, this could take 2-3 hours). You may check on the meat once or twice during the cooking process to ensure it does not dry out. | 10. Once the meat is done cooking, squeeze the lime juice over the barbacoa and stir to combine flavors. | 11. Enjoy! | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
