Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 pound Pork shoulder butt,smoked
  • 1/4 cup Brown sugar,light,packed
  • 2 teaspoon Mustard,yellow,prepared
  • 1 cup Corn,whole kernel,cooked
  • 1/2 Green Pepper,cut/1" strips
  • 1 teaspoon Cloves,whole
  • 1 tablespoon Orange juice
  • 2 can Pork and beans(16oz)
  • 1/2 cup Onion,minced
  • 1 Garlic Clove,minced
Directions
  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 325ðF (165ðC).
  2. 2
    Pat the smoked pork shoulder dry with paper towels. Using a sharp knife, score the surface of the meat in a crosshatch pattern, inserting whole cloves into the cuts.
  3. 3
    Place the pork in an 8-inch square baking dish. Bake for 45 minutes to begin rendering the fat and warming the meat.
  4. 4
    While the pork bakes, mix the brown sugar, orange juice, and 1 teaspoon of mustard in a small bowl until smooth.
  5. 5
    Remove the pork from the oven. Spoon the sugar-mustard glaze evenly over the top of the meat.
  6. 6
    In a separate bowl, combine the canned pork and beans, cooked corn, green pepper strips, minced onion, minced garlic, and the remaining 1 teaspoon of mustard.
  7. 7
    Pour the bean mixture around the pork in the baking dish, being careful not to cover the glazed meat completely.
  8. 8
    Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 45 minutes, or until the pork is tender and the bean mixture is bubbly.
  9. 9
    Let stand for 5 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to settle.
