Pork with honey in the oven

Instead of a ham, you can take a shoulder blade or a neck part. The ham turns out to be very tasty, juicy and fragrant. The marinade turned out to be very successful - with a slight sourness and bitterness of lemon, with a bright honey taste. Another such marinade is very well suited for shish kebab, only mint leaves should not be crushed, but beaten with a hammer to make the juice stand out.
