Rub pork butt with cumin and black pepper and place in an extra-large glass or plastic bowl. In another large bowl, combine pineapple juice, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, honey, ginger, onion, cilantro, jalapeños, and garlic. Pour mixture over pork, cover and refrigerate overnight for 12 hours, turning pork once.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Pour half of the marinade from pork into small bowl, cover, and refrigerate.
Bake pork in large roasting pan, covered for 3 ½ hours. Remove from oven. Uncover, allow pork to cool slightly, and use a fork to shred meat. Discard pan drippings. Place shredded pork in a clean pan.
