The norm is 25 mins per pound plus 25 mins but the slower the cook the more tender it will be.
Its trial and error.
I have found a great benefit is a meat temperature that you put into the fattest part of the joint and then you can see when its all done.
All meat needs to stand for a while once its out of the oven . cover with foil to keep hot

It depends which cut you're cooking. I tend to buy shoulder because it is cheap, best cooked long (at least 3-4hours) at a very low temperature.
