⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
4
Place the meat in a baking pan and drizzle the lemon juice over it.

💡Shoulder is rich in connective tissue: only long, covered baking, in the steam of the liquids in the pan, makes it tender. The cover comes off only at the end, for browning.
💡Check by the cue (until…), not just the clock: every oven bakes a little differently.
6
Bake without the foil 20 minutes, until the meat is browned, tender and falls apart easily with a fork.
