BBQ Pulled Pork

Summer bbq is incomplete without bbq pulled pork!

BBQ pulled pork, when cooked slowly, becomes sumptuously tender-making it ideal for serving with a crunchy slaw. It’s one of the most loved bbq recipes. To cook this delicious meal, you’ll need:

Onion
2.2 kg boneless pork shoulder
1 ½ tbsp. Smoked sweet paprika

2 tsp sea salt
1 tbsp. English mustard powder

And for bbq sauce, you’ll need:

1 small apple, core discarded
½ onion
1 red chilli

40 g brown sugar
150 ml cola
2 tbsp. soy sauce

4 tbsp. Cider vinegar
250g tomato ketchup.

Method:

Heat the oven to mark 2 at 150°C (130°C fan). Place the pork, skin side up, on top of the onion slices in the bottom of a deep casserole dish with a lid.
Combine the paprika, mustard powder, salt, and sugar in a small bowl, then rub it all over the pork.
To make the pork softer, add 250ml (9 Fl oz) of water to the casserole, cover with the lid, and cook for 412 to 5 hours (it should pull apart easily with 2 forks).

Make the barbecue sauce in the interim. Mix all the ingredients and heat to a boil in a small pan.
When occasionally stirring, boil for 15 to 20 minutes or until reduced and thickened.
Remove the meat to a board with care. Cook for 45 minutes, flipping gently and adding additional sauce a few times while cooking (if possible).

Pork skin and most of the visible fat should be removed and discarded. Use two forks to shred the meat. Toss the food in the remaining sauce to coat. Served with coleslaw and bread.
