• 1 colher de chá de pimenta preta moída

• 450g whole pork shoulder with bone

• 1 colher de sopa de amido de milho

• 1 colher de sopa de vinagre de vinho tinto

• 3 colheres de sopa de azeite de oliva extra-virgem

• 450g onions, halved, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices

• 450g red peppers, seeded, cut into 1/2-inch-wide strips

• 230g green peppers, seeded, cut into 1/2-inch-wide strips

Chop garlic on work surface. Sprinkle with 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt and mince until paste forms. Transfer paste to small bowl; mix in parsley and next 7 ingredients. Using small sharp knife, make 20 evenly spaced 1-inch-long, 2-inch-deep slits in pork. Stuff seasoning mixture into slits. Sprinkle outside of pork with salt and pepper. Let stand 1 hour for seasonings to penetrate.

Position rack in bottom third of oven and preheat to 163°C. Place rack in large roasting pan; place pork on rack. Roast until thermometer inserted into thickest part registers 77°C, about 4 1/2 hours. Let pork rest 30 minutes. Transfer to work surface. Maintain oven temperature; reserve roasting pan.

Thickly slice pork off bone. Coarsely chop or tear slices and place in large baking dish; cover with foil. Pour juices from roasting pan into 4-cup measuring cup. Spoon off fat. If necessary, add enough water to degreased juices to measure 475ml . Stir 2 tablespoons juices and cornflour in small saucepan until cornflour dissolves; whisk in remaining juices and vinegar. Whisk over medium heat until sauce boils and thickens, about 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and all peppers; sauté until vegetables are tender and brown, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Arrange roll bottoms on work surface; mound with warm pork and drizzle with sauce. Cover with cheese, vegetables, and roll tops. Serve warm.
