Slow Cooker Pulled Pork
Prep time: 10 min
Cook time: 5 hour
Servings: 8
1 - 150 gram
Served here with pineapple and chopped chives.
Ingredients
5 pound pork shoulder/butt
1 small can pineapple juice
1-1/2 tbsp sea salt
6 small cloves garlic
1 tbsp siracha seasoning
1-1/2 tsp dried ginger
1-1/2 tsp onion powder
1 tsp lemon black pepper
3 slices bacon
cilantro to taste
Directions
Place your pork butt on a cutting board and use a small, sharp knife to make 6 X-shaped slits, 3 on either side. Do this by pushing the tip of your knife straight into the center of the pork, about ½ to 1 inch deep.
Push the garlic into each one of the slits.
Place the pork in the slow cooker and cover on all sides with the seasoning mix.
Lay the bacon slices across the top of your pork roast.
Put the top on and set your slow cooker to low for 10 hours, or high for 5.
Take the pork out, drain the liquid (reserve some of it), and put it back in the slow cooker. Shred with two forks. You can drizzle a little of the cooking liquid back over the roast if you like. Top it with pineapple, green onions and cilantro when you like.
