Step by step recipe
Stage 1 - 2 min.
Prepare 1 kg pork meat by salting and peppering on both sides.
Choose one of the cheaper cuts, such as shoulder, on the bone. It doesn't matter if it is a bit fatty.

Stage 4 - 5 min.
Wash 1 kg 500 g potatoes, a mix of "baby" potatoes here.

Put everything in a roasting bag, seal and sit this in an ovenproof dish. Cook at 300°F (150°C) for 4 hours.

Stage 7 - 5 min.
Take the meat out of the bag. Remove and discard the bones.

Remarks
This cooking method can be used for other meats (beef, veal), still with cheaper cuts.
You can improve this recipe even further by browning the meat briefly on both sides in a frying pan before putting it in its roasting bag.
