Poland's Summertime! Let's BBQ [79]
It's that time opf the yr again :) My favorite when it comes to cookin.
I'm going to share an excellent Carolina Pulled Pork recipe. If you've never had one, please try....you'll be hooked. It'[s best with a crock pot, but I'll leave an alternate.
1st you need a 3-4 lb (1.4-1.8 kg) Pork shoulder/butt( on or off bone)
Youll have to mix dry ingredients twice. One is to rub on the butt(pork) and refrigerate overnight.
1 large onion, chopped
6 garlic cloves, peeled
1 pickled jalapeño pepper, seeded and chopped
2 teaspoons (10ml) of Chipotle chile powder
1 Tbsp (15ml) tomato paste
2 Tbsp (30ml) Dijon mustard
3/4 cup (175ml) distilled white vinegar
1 teaspoon (5ml)paprika
1/3 cup (75ml) ketchup
2 teaspoons (10ml) Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup (50ml) light/dark brown sugar
1 bay leaf
Salt (to taste afterwards)
Compile all ingredients except for the Bay leaf and Pork and blend. Place in slow cooker/crock and add about 700 ml of water (just to completely cover pork) let cook for for 8-10 hrs. I know...it's a long time, but saoooo worth it :)
After this time is up, you remove the pork and take 2 forks and pull away in opposite directions until its all shredded. Take the shreds and spread out on a baking sheet. Heat at 350 f (175c) until edges are crisp. You'll be able to see brown edges.
Reduce (for those that don't cook, it means cook on stove to evaporate some of the water) about 25% of the sauce from crock. Place pork ina big bowl and add the reduced sauce...not too much. Real pulled pork isn't soupy ;)
Put a generous amt on your favorite bread/roll and enjoy!!!!!!
If you cook it in an oven only, cook at low temp maybe 175-200 f (about 80-90c) for about 6 hrs. You can reduce the time a little if you brown the edges in a dutch oven. Prepare sauce w/ the same ingredients above and reduce the same way.
