We’re Adam and Joanne from inspiredtaste.net
and welcome to our kitchen.
We’re making our Ultimate Pulled Pork.
We’re using our slow cooker today, but check
the recipe for instructions for using a pressure
cooker or Instant Pot.
Start by rubbing pork shoulder with a generous
amount of salt and pepper — there’s a
lot of meat here so don’t be shy.
Place the seasoned pork into a slow cooker
and move on to the sauce.
Chop an onion into small pieces
then mince 4 garlic cloves.
Now we move to the stove top. Add some oil to a skillet
and cook the onions and garlic until softened.
For more flavor, add tomato paste, chili powder
and ground cumin.
Stir and cook for a minute or two then pour
in water, apple cider vinegar and fish sauce.
If you don’t have fish sauce, Worcestershire
sauce is a great alternative.
Just use a spoon to scrape up anything stuck
to the bottom of the pan.
Pour the onion and spice mixture on top of
the pork then move the pork around so that
some of the onion and spice mixture slides
underneath.
Cover with the lid and cook on low until the
pork can easily be shredded, for a large piece
of meat it will take about 8 to 10 hours.
If you are using a pressure cooker, the cook
time will be much less.
When it’s done, take the pork out of the
slow cooker and shred it with two forks — as
we shred the pork, we remove any large clumps
of fat.
Okay now to finish, we worked hard on that
cooking liquid so let’s use it.
Pour it into a jug and skim excess fat from
the top.
Then toss with the shredded pork.
We just do this in the slow cooker.
As the pork sits in the liquid, it soaks up
even more flavor.
It’s ridiculously tasty.
And that’s it, ultra-tender and flavorful
pulled pork.
Enjoy!
