Instructions
- 1 Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
- 2 To make the spice mixture: Combine 1/4 cup salt, 1/4 cup black pepper, 1/4 cup Italian seasoning, rosemary, granulated garlic, granulated onion, 1 tablespoon red pepper flakes, and lemon pepper together in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- 3 Place pork shoulder in a large roasting pan. Combine lemon juice, 1 tablespoon oil, vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce together in a small bowl; rub on pork. Sprinkle pork all over with prepared spice mixture. Pour white wine, chicken stock, and 4 crushed garlic cloves into the roasting pan.
- 4 Cover pan tightly with heavy-duty aluminum foil and roast in the preheated oven until tender, and a thermometer inserted into the thickest part reaches at least 200 degrees F (95 degrees C), 3 to 4 hours. Transfer pork to a cutting board; cool slightly before pulling. Using two forks, shred into bite-size pieces. Transfer to a large bowl; toss with some of the pan juices to moisten.
- 5 Increase oven temperature to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
- 6 Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat; add goat horn peppers, bell pepper, onion, 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Cook until onion softens and turns golden, about 12 minutes.
- 7 Stir in mushrooms, garlic-basil spread, and Marsala wine; cook until wine reduces and mushrooms soften, about 5 minutes. Mix pulled pork and pesto sauce into vegetable mixture; cook until heated through, about 10 minutes. Divide pork mixture between hoagie buns; top each with 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese.
- 8 Transfer sandwiches to a baking sheet; bake until cheese melts, about 5 minutes. Top with cherry tomatoes and basil.
