If possible, rub the brown sugar, mustard and seasoning mix on the pork the night before you cook it. This gives the seasoning, and especially the salt, time to penetrate and flavor the meat more fully. It's not absolutely necessary, but will make the pork more flavorful.
This pork will keep for about 5 days in the refrigerator. You can freeze the pork by shredding the meat and mixing it with some of the braising liquid in a Ziploc freezer bag. To defrost, put the pork in the refrigerator overnight then warm in a saute pan with a little water on the stove or in the oven (covered with foil)
