Once you've perfected the art of making pulled pork, you can use it in a variety of dishes. Enjoy it in sandwiches, tacos, burritos, and even on top of salads. The possibilities are endless.
For those who have a smoker or grill, you can use either for slow-cooked pulled pork. It requires patience, but the end result is a tender, juicy, and flavorful dish. The key to making great pulled pork is to cook it low and slow. This allows the flavors to really develop and the meat to become very tender. Start with a good quality, bone-in pork butt or shoulder. Rub it with a special spice blend, then let it cook slowly over indirect heat, adding smoke if desired.
If you don't have the time or equipment to slow-cook the pork, you can still make great pulled pork in the oven. Start by rubbing the pork with your desired spices, then place it in a roasting pan and pour a liquid, such as beer or apple cider, over it. Cover the pan with foil and bake it until it is tender and falls apart easily when pulled.
Once the pork is cooked, it's time to get creative with your pulled pork recipes. Make a classic pulled pork sandwich with your favorite BBQ sauce and coleslaw. Or, spice things up and make a pulled pork burrito with black beans and a creamy chipotle sauce. You can also use pulled pork as the base for a flavorful soup or chili.
