Directions:
Preheat oven to 400º. Lightly grease the inside of a casserole or deep roasting dish. Put the Worcestershire sauce in a separate bowl and soak the Boston butt in the sauce.
Remove roast from sauce and coat with brown sugar, being sure to press the brown sugar all over to form a crust. Place sugar-crusted roast in the casserole dish.
Pour apple juice into the casserole, but do not pour over the roast. Cover casserole or pan tightly.
Place the roast in the oven and immediately turn the heat down to 200º and bake in the oven for about 5 hours.
Uncover the roast and check for doneness. The meat should be so tender it falls apart easily. If it doesn't, recover the roast and cook for 30 minutes more or as needed.
