This recipe is loosely based on one by Rick Bayless that my parents make with big chunks of pork shoulder their butcher calls “pork cushions”; I’ve never seen that terminology used myself, but it feels appropriate. Bayless’s process is of course a bit more complicated, and he uses potatoes and wild greens instead of turnips, but I really love the bite and faint bitterness of turnips and their greens (which mellow considerably over the course of a day in the slow cooker).
