The Best Pulled Pork - probably

 It's taken a few years and a number of tries but I think I may have found my most favourite recipe for pulled pork and here it is. 

Credit to wellplated.com as the recipe is based on their's. 

Ingredients

2kg - boned shoulder of pork (rind off)

1 red onion - chopped finely

1 small can - tomato puree

80ml - Apple cider vinegar

80ml - clear honey

60ml - water

2tbs - dark brown sugar

2tbs - Worcestershire sauce

2tsp - paprika

2tsp - minced garlic

2tsp - mustard powder

2tsp - chipotle paste

1tsp - salt (plus some for seasoning the pork)

ground black pepper

1tbs - cornflour


Method

1. Place all of the ingredients excluding the cornflour in the slow cooker and mix thoroughly.

2. Season the pork with salt and pepper, rubbing into the flesh. 

3. Place the pork in the slowcooker and cover in the mix.

4. Cook on high for 1 - 2 hours turning every 30-45 mins. 

5. Cook on low for 6-8 hours until tender and the pork falls apart. 

6. Separate the meat into a separate bowl and shred with forks. I also remove the excess fat. 

7. Strain the juices into a small pan on the hob. Add the cornflour. Mix over a medium heat until it thickens. 

8. Pour the thickened juice over the pulled pork and serve warm.
