Whenever I see pork shoulder on sale for a good price, I always pick one up to keep in the freezer. This recipe is a great change of pace from the regular barbeque pulled pork sandwiches that I usually make with it. The addition of citrus makes it great for summertime, and this makes enough sandwiches to feed a rather large crowd!

How fresh is this dish? I love, love, love the use of all the citrus juices. I think it must add such a bright taste to the pork. I never thought of making paninis. I will have to add this recipe to the menu this week because it is a nice change from regular pulled pork. Thanks for the inspiration.

I'm always looking for something new to make for lunch and this is certainly different than the norm for me. My mouth is watering just reading the recipe and with the citrus in it, I'm betting it'll be super flavorful and juicy. I've never actually had a Panini sandwich before... but this recipe definitely gives me a reason to try it.
