Ingredients
- 1.8kg Pork Shoulder Joint
- 1 Large Onion
- 80ml Apple Cider Vinegar
- ½ teaspoon Liquid Smoke (optional)
- 50g Light Brown Sugar
- 3 tablespoons Tomato Puree
- 2 tablespoons Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce
- 2 tablespoons American Yellow Mustard
- 1½ teaspoon Salt
Directions
1. | Peel and slice the onion and place at the bottom of your slow cooker |
2. | In a large jug, stir together the ketchup, vinegar, sugar, tomato puree, paprika, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, salt and pepper |
3. | If there is rind on your pork, cut it off (you can always bake this in the oven to make crackling), then place the meat on top of the onions |
4. | Pour the sauce over the top of the pork, place on the lid, and set your slow cooker to LOW and cook for 8-10 hours until the pork is tender |
5. | Carefully lift out the pork onto a baking tray, then put to one side |
6. | Pour the sauce into a saucepan and heat until it thickens |
7. | While the sauce thickens, using two forks, shred the pork removing any large pieces of fat. Place the pork back in the slow cooker |
8. | Pour the sauce over the shredded pork and stir to combine |
9. | Leave your cooker on WARM if serving a party. Serve on toasted buns with some apple slaw |
Note
Any leftover pulled pork will easily keep for about 5 days in a sealed container in the fridge. It may need a little water when you reheat it.
Alternatively, you could freeze it in strong food bags for up to 3 months.
